Miloš Havel (3 November 1899 – 25 February 1968) was a Czech publisher and filmmaker.

Though Havel was forced to sell his share in the organization during the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, he remained in charge of the studio and protected its staff from deportation.
After World War II his wartime activities were criticized heavily, and he was put on trial for charges relating to collaboration with Nazi Germany.
Though acquitted, he was banned from working in the film industry.
He left the country on his second attempt, and settled in Munich.
He was the uncle of Czech statesman Václav Havel.
