István Nagy (1909–1976) was a Hungarian stage and film actor.[1][2] He starred alongside the actress Katalin Karády in several films. He was born in Transylvania which was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but was subsequently ceded to Romania and went to university and began acting in Cluj. When Hungary annexed Transylvania in 1940 he moved to Budapest and appeared onstage at the National Theatre and elsewhere and in films at the city's Hunnia Studios.
