The street Grand Theft Auto 6Leonida is bustling with all sorts of funny characters that help make Rockstar’s Florida satire a reality. Usually, this fictional, inplayable pleb fictional chunk of fictionality finds a balance between being a perfect lands and looking incredibly realistic. Potentially, you can refer to any character of GTA 6 So far, the trailer can find at least one human IRL that appears to be surprisingly familiar to that NPC. There is a population of over 8 billion here. But now there are two completely different instances where fans think that rock stars will lift up portraits of two real people.
It first occurred in 2024 when Lawrence Sullivan, a man known as the “Florida Joker,” threatened a rock star in a lawsuit against a character whom he believed had mimicked a viral mug shot since 2017. GTA 6. However, he demanded millions of dollars in compensation in exchange for the “free marketing” he was offering. To date, it does not appear that Sullivan has been paid.
The same trailer for debut GTA 6 For the first time, it also included a large collection of black characters decorated with DreadLocks, white tank tops and gold chains. This prompted a response from a Tiktoker named Zoeepoppyy. He posted a video in 2023 while standing next to the trailer.
“They cloned Tyrone,” the man said, sucking his teeth in disapproval. “What a god, can you pay?” he asked. Zoeepoppyy pointed out details such as hair, chains, glasses and facial features as evidence of imitation.
Two years later, Rockstar released a second trailer GTA 6 – And some things were different. One of these tweaks appears to be the same black character that caused the rip-off allegations. However, this time, the NPC wears a red hat, a set of bright shades, a small mustache and braids. In particular, both characters wear the same series of gold chains as the white tank top.
Rockstar did not respond to requests for comment on whether this was intended to be the same character or whether adjustments were made in light of Tiktoker’s allegations. However, judging from Twitter posts that have been viewed over 13 million times in a few days, fans are sure the rockstar has changed the character in particular for Tiktoker.
While both of these may be relevant, it is also worth noting that games under development constantly change for all kinds of reasons. One of the main characters, Jason, saw a major visual upgrade between the trailers GTA 6. His first iteration leaned further towards the general direction of the main character in the grumpy and buzzcut. Meanwhile, his latest version is pasted with a worse stream of rock that can grow heavily in sweat. You can also find hair on individual arms from afar. Truly, the entire trailer has lots of impressive changes ranging from the background landscape and weather to small details such as physics and muscle deformations.
And it seems that the grand thief car is always having a certain portrait controversy. Notorious, Grand Theft Auto 5 Lindsay Lohan Sue Rockstar saw it more than a character named Lacey Jonas. In that case, the judge found that while there were some similarities as a whole “obvious, satirical representation of the style, appearance and persona of a young woman heading to a modern beach that cannot be reasonably identifiable as a plaintiff,” some similarities were apparent.
