1996–2006 Swedish film series From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lilla Jönssonligan (English: The Little Jönsson gang) is a Swedish film series that consists of four films. The film series is a spin-off of the original Jönssonligan film series, featuring the main characters as kids instead of adults. Unlike the "adult Jönssonligan", where the gang were bumbling anti-heroes, the "litte Jönssonligan" is often straight up heroic.

Unlike the regular Jönssonligan, the kid version was an original Swedish idea, with Denmark and Norway later following suit, with Olsen-banden Junior and Olsenbanden Jr. respectively.
Four feature films have been made as of 2020[update]. Lilla Jönssonligan och cornflakeskuppen takes place in the 1950s and works as an origin story for the gang. Lilla Jönssonligan och stjärnkuppen does not take place in the same canon as the first three films or the original series as it is set in modern day.

The gang consists of the criminal genius Charles Ingvar "Sickan" Jönsson, hence the name Jönssonligan, and his two companions Harry (aka Dynamit-Harry) and Ragnar Vanheden.
The gang's arch-enemy is Morgan "Junior" Wall-Enberg and his henchman, Biffen. Loa Falkman plays Wall-Enberg "Senior" in all the films. Junior does not appear in the fourth film.
