The ‘Florida Joker’, who accused Rockstar of utilizing his likeness within the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer, is again and this time he’s after a talking position within the sport. That’s not in lieu of fee, although, he nonetheless desires cash from Rockstar, or he’s going to sue.
Early final December, Rockstar formally launched the trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 and, rightly, it left individuals excited for the most recent entry on this open world sport sequence.
However one one that was distinctly unimpressed was Lawrence Sullivan who, arrested again in 2017, grew to become generally known as the Florida Joker. Going by his mugshot, it’s fairly clear that was the picture he was going for, however he now believes that Rockstar used him as inspiration for a purple-haired, tattooed character featured within the GTA 6 trailer.
Sullivan went on TikTok, asking that Rockstar contact him, asking for at the least 1,000,000 {dollars} for his ‘look’ within the sport. Lindsay Lohan did try and sue Rockstar for allegedly utilizing her picture in GTA 5, however that case was thrown out.
Nevertheless, in his newest TikTok (noticed by PC Gamer), Sullivan makes an attempt to barter with Rockstar. He’s now asking, on high of the cash, for a task within the sport, voicing the purple-haired character. However, hold on… that is somebody we’ve seen for all of two seconds. How do we all know he’s even acquired any talking traces in Grand Theft Auto 6?

Sullivan has considered that, explaining that he desires the character to be padded out. “Let me voice the character, give me extra storyline within the sport, and get me a number of mil, get me a royalty deal off it.”
That final situation appears much more optimistic than the ‘few mil’, since online game voice actors hardly ever get royalties. The video concludes with him giving Rockstar a month to answer, or he’s going to sue. I think that, proper now, Rockstar is simply hoping he’ll go away. However get your popcorn on the prepared, simply in case.
