Peter Voss, Thief of Millions (German: Peter Voss, der Millionendieb) is a 1932 German comedy crime film directed by Ewald André Dupont and starring Willi Forst, Alice Treff, and Paul Hörbiger. It was based on the 1913 novel of the same title by Ewald Gerhard Seeliger which has been adapted into a number of films including previously in 1921 and later in 1946. It was the second to last film made by Dupont in Germany before he was forced to flee to the United States following the rise of the Nazi Party.[1]

It was shot at the Emelka Studios in Munich with location shooting in Marseille. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Ludwig Reiber and Willy Reiber.
