Gösta Ekman d.y. (junior), (born July 28, 1939 in Stockholm) is a Swedish actor.

One of Sweden's most appreciated, respected and popular actors; Gösta Ekman started his career in theatre but has also appeared in several Swedish films, including the Jönssonligan series. Although most famous for his comedic works, especially for his collaboration with the comic duo Hasseåtage on stage and in films (where he often played the leading parts), he has also done other things, including a series of drama/police films where he played the famous Swedish fictive policeman Martin Beck.

Gösta Ekman is the third generation in a family line of prominent Swedish actors starting with his paternal grandfather also named Gösta Ekman (senior) and then his father Hasse Ekman, a successful film director and actor. The "Ekman theatre family" also include his brothers Stefan Ekman (also an actor) and Mikael Ekman (stage director), and his niece Sanna Ekman (actress).

Sometimes credited as "Gösta Ekman Jr." to avoid being confused with his famous grandfather.

Married to artist Marie-Louise Ekman (previously married Marie-Louise De Geer Bergenstråhle; nee "Fuchs"). He was in the 1960s married to Fatima Ekman (nee "Gerhard").

Officially retired from stage and acting work in 2003.
