Easy Money (Swedish: Snabba cash)^[3] is a Swedish crime thriller film directed by Daniel Espinosa (in his directorial debut) that was released on 15 January 2010. It is based on the 2006 novel of the same name by Jens Lapidus.^[4] Joel Kinnaman stars in the lead role of Johan "JW" Westlund, a rather poor man living a double life in the upper class areas of Stockholm. After meeting a wealthy girl, he is enticed into the world of organized crime and begins to sell cocaine to afford his expensive lifestyle. Easy Money was well received by critics and was a hit at the box office.

Two sequels to the film have been made: Easy Money II (2012) and Easy Money III (2013). In 2010, Warner Bros. announced their plans for an American remake of Easy Money starring Zac Efron,^[5] but the project was shelved.^[6] In 2021, the TV series Snabba Cash was released on Netflix, containing 6 episodes based on the original novel.
