Brasse Brännström (real name Lars Erik Brännström; 27 February 1945 – 29 August 2014) was a Swedish actor and comedian.

Brännström attended Adolf Fredrik's Music School in Stockholm.[1] In 1970, he gained fame alongside Magnus Härenstam and Lasse Hallström, when they made their first television program Oj är det redan fredag. During the 1980s, Brännström managed Maximteatern in Stockholm with Magnus Härenstam, Lill Lindfors, and Aller Johansson, in a company called Limabrall. He is also known for hosting the children's TV-program Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter (with Magnus Härenstam & Eva Remaeus), which was popular and has been re-broadcast numerous times.

In 1988, he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium as co-writer of the screenplay for My Life as a Dog.
