Editing Fritz Leiber (section)

The similarity of the names of the father and the son caused some filmographies to incorrectly attribute to Fritz Jr. roles which were in fact played by his father, Fritz Leiber Sr., who was the evil Inquisitor in the Errol Flynn adventure film ''[[The Sea Hawk (1940 film)|The Sea Hawk]]'' (1940) and had played in many other movies from 1917 to the late 1950s. It is the elder Leiber, not the younger, who appears in the Vincent Price vehicle ''[[The Web (film)|The Web]]'' (1947) and in Charlie Chaplin's ''[[Monsieur Verdoux]]'' (1947).{{citation needed|date=June 2021}}

The younger Leiber can be seen briefly as Valentin in the 1936 film version of ''[[Camille (1936 film)|Camille]]'' starring [[Greta Garbo]]. In the cult horror film ''[[Equinox (1970 film)|Equinox]]'' (1970) directed by [[Dennis Muren]] and Jack Woods, Leiber has a cameo appearance as a geologist, Dr. Watermann. In the edited second version of the movie, Leiber has no spoken dialogue but appears in a few scenes. The original version of the movie has a longer appearance by Leiber recounting the ancient book and a brief speaking role; all were cut from the re-release.

He also appears as Chavez in the 1979 Schick Sunn Classics documentary ''The Bermuda Triangle'', based on the book by [[Charles Berlitz]].
