Brignano trained at Gigi Proietti's acting school, then obtained some popularity in the role of Giacinto in "Un medico in famiglia". Since the late 1990s he has been juggling films and television, with leading roles on the big screen ("Ci vediamo domani", "Poveri ma ricchi" and "Da grandi", to name a few) and with successful TV shows such as "Un'ora sola vi vorrei" (4 editions on Rai2 since 2020). However, Brignano's natural habitat is the stage. He has around thirty stage shows under his belt and is on stage with "I sette re di Roma", text by Gigi Magni, music by Nicola Piovani.
He also dubbed a character in the successful Disney cartoon "Frozen", lending his voice to Olaf, the funny snowman who loves summer. He has written nine books throughout his career. The latest, published by Einaudi, is his own personal interpretation of mythology, "Non facciamone una tragedia".
