Henry Hübchen (born 20 February 1947 in Berlin)[1] is a German actor who played the title character in the award-winning 2004 film Go for Zucker.

That performance earned him a Lola, Germany's equivalent of an Oscar,[2] and critical praise at home and abroad.

Critic David Denby praised his performance in Zucker, writing "veteran German theater and film actor Henry Hübchen gives this middle-aged rogue a Bellovian gusto.

"[4] The New York Times said the character, Jaeckie Zucker, "suggests a German Jewish Rodney Dangerfield in his gleeful boorishness.

"[5] In an August 2004 profile, German public broadcaster Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk said Hübchen is best known in Germany for a role on the long-running television series Polizeiruf 110.
