Grand Theft Autofans are anxious for any kind of news regarding future content from Rockstar Games, whether it’s related toGrand Theft Auto Onlineor the rumored development ofGrand Theft Auto 6. Luckily, a bit of news appears to have leaked recently regarding a forthcomingGrand Theft Autocharacter. The leak comes from voice actor Dave Jackson, so who says that they were hired by Rockstar to play the character Captain McClane in an upcomingGrand Theft Autogame. They’ve since taken down their Facebook post making the announcement.
Based on what Jackson says, the McClane character is set to appear in a “newGrand Theft Autoseries,” however they later clarify that they don’t know exactly where their character will appear inGrand Theft Auto. They don’t know if it’ll beGrand Theft Auto 6or a futureGrand Theft Auto Onlineupdate. More specifically, they haven’t been told whether it’s forGTA6orGTAO. What they do know is that Rockstar is currently working on a trailer and that Jackson is involved.

Jackson’s experience is said to range from audiobook voiceover to video games, though he doesn’t have a reference to any major projects the scale ofGrand Theft Auto. It begs the question as to whether Jackson may have been confused about the project or could have misinformed people. There’s no evidence pointing either way, of course. Rockstar historically employsNDAs to keep voice actors from talkingabout ongoing projects, but that historically hasn’t stopped people from talking.
Speaking about NDAs, Jackson was asked if he was violating his by talking about theGrand Theft Autoproject. Jackson says that the producers he worked with “said I could spread the world,” and to expect the trailer he worked on soon.
If Jackson is being truthful and isn’t confused about the situation, his Captain McClane character seems much more likely to be a part ofGrand Theft Auto Onlinerather thanGrand Theft Auto 6. There have been rumors regarding a “Cops and Crooks” updateforGTA Onlinefor months, if not a year. It’s more than possible Rockstar has a trailer coming for it, if it exists.
As for the possibility of Jackson potentially leaking aGrand Theft Auto 6character, that’s much less likely given his trailer news.Grand Theft Auto 6hasn’t been officially announced yet and it’s audacious to think Rockstar would be comfortable with news regarding an announcement trailer being leaked early. That’s if the leak is reliable in the first place.
Grand Theft Auto Onlineis available now on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, with a PS5 and Xbox Series X/S release coming November 11.
