Without a doubt the next Grand Theft Auto will have an extensive character list. From the main protagonist we control to mission givers and random pedestrians on the street, GTA V will certainly offer a wide array of people to interact with.
We do not know for certain who will be in the game, but we can speculate with some evidence as given below...
This man is almost certainly voiced by Ned Luke.
The first and only person so far we are shown a close up of. He appears to be around 50 years old, Caucasian, wearing a shirt and suit jacket. He moved to a big house in Los Santos for the weather and "magic", retired from a bad "line of work", and dreams of having a nice family (or, at least kids). If he is in fact the person speaking, he could very well be the protagonist or at the very least another major character in GTA V.
"Guy in blue car"
A noticeable vehicle seen in a few spots. The driver seems to also be the same guy leading the robbery while dressed as pest control personnel. He appears to be around 40-50 years old. He may not be the same person as the "Old Guy" above because this person appears to have a little grey hair above the ears and is skinny or more fit. However, it is possible this is a younger version of "Old Guy" and the grey hair is simply the graphic engine displaying shadows and light on his head.
"Guy in red car"
Although in our control for GTA IV, Niko could very well make an appearance in GTA 5. In the previous GTA III series of games, quite a few characters were seen in the different games including Claude (aka Fido) and Catalina from Grand Theft Auto III appearing in San Andreas. Even if we begin a new GTA V series of games, Niko and others could make their way back into the story. As evidence of Niko traveling, check out a plane ticket to San Andreas with his name on it which can be seen below. This was found on Rockstar Games own Social Club website in GTA IV's Story Gang section! Easter egg or what?
In the ending credits of the Ballad of Gay Tony, Packie can be seen heading into the airport to catch a plane. See below. To where we can only speculate but it is very possible he plays some part in Grand Theft Auto 5. Could he even be the main character?
Another person we've already controlled but in San Andreas. A billboard in GTA IV depicts a very similar looking person to CJ and could hint at his presence in Los Santos as speculated. Rockstar has stated GTA IV was in a different "universe" to the III series and would not feature characters from the previous games, however, there has been some crossover outside of the story including graffiti and a billboard found in the game pictured below. Still, it is unlikely we will actually meet CJ in GTA V.
But On April 4th, 2012 Christopher Bellard (Young MayLay) who voiced CJ confirmed that he is not in Grand Theft Auto 5 via twitter.
So what do you people think about this? express your thought in comments below.
We do not know for certain who will be in the game, but we can speculate with some evidence as given below...
From the first GTA V trailer
These are characters spotted in the first official GTA 5 trailer. We've added some casting call names (see bottom) related to their description, however, it is possible none of the names are for these characters."Old Guy"
The first and only person so far we are shown a close up of. He appears to be around 50 years old, Caucasian, wearing a shirt and suit jacket. He moved to a big house in Los Santos for the weather and "magic", retired from a bad "line of work", and dreams of having a nice family (or, at least kids). If he is in fact the person speaking, he could very well be the protagonist or at the very least another major character in GTA V.
Possible name from casting calls
If he already has children, it is possible he could be Albert De Silva with a son named Kevin as listed in the casting calls below. He could also be Calvin North who is a divorced FBI Agent who has gained weight and would have reason to move. However, Calvin is listed as "badly dressed". Jerry Cole is a criminal information vendor which would be a bad line of work although he is "disabled". However, this person's lower half is not seen so it is possible he is Jerry but what are the chances a disabled person would be speeding around recklessly though? It is possible he is an older version of the guy in the blue car (below)."Guy in blue car"
A noticeable vehicle seen in a few spots. The driver seems to also be the same guy leading the robbery while dressed as pest control personnel. He appears to be around 40-50 years old. He may not be the same person as the "Old Guy" above because this person appears to have a little grey hair above the ears and is skinny or more fit. However, it is possible this is a younger version of "Old Guy" and the grey hair is simply the graphic engine displaying shadows and light on his head.
Possible name from casting calls
It seems possible that this guy is Jeffrey. Jeffrey is said to be tall, athletic, and a bit crazy."Guy in red car"
Another noticeable vehicle, the red car can be seen throughout the trailer. This makes the driver a person of interest. He appears to be around 30 years old with a tan, possibly Hispanic and/or African decent, and wearing a wife beater shirt plus a yellow or gold watch. He may also among the robbers in the pest control scene as either the guy on the left exiting the rear of the van or as the driver of the van who can be seen for a split second and is wearing a white wife beater too. If he is the driver, maybe the guy exiting the rear is a family member?
Possible name from casting calls
It is possible this guy is Chad but doesn't really fit the stereotypical "rich pretty boy" look so that seems unlikely at this time.
Returning Characters
The following characters could make a return from previous GTA games.
Niko Bellic
Although in our control for GTA IV, Niko could very well make an appearance in GTA 5. In the previous GTA III series of games, quite a few characters were seen in the different games including Claude (aka Fido) and Catalina from Grand Theft Auto III appearing in San Andreas. Even if we begin a new GTA V series of games, Niko and others could make their way back into the story. As evidence of Niko traveling, check out a plane ticket to San Andreas with his name on it which can be seen below. This was found on Rockstar Games own Social Club website in GTA IV's Story Gang section! Easter egg or what?Packie McReary
In the ending credits of the Ballad of Gay Tony, Packie can be seen heading into the airport to catch a plane. See below. To where we can only speculate but it is very possible he plays some part in Grand Theft Auto 5. Could he even be the main character?Carl Johnson (CJ)
Another person we've already controlled but in San Andreas. A billboard in GTA IV depicts a very similar looking person to CJ and could hint at his presence in Los Santos as speculated. Rockstar has stated GTA IV was in a different "universe" to the III series and would not feature characters from the previous games, however, there has been some crossover outside of the story including graffiti and a billboard found in the game pictured below. Still, it is unlikely we will actually meet CJ in GTA V.But On April 4th, 2012 Christopher Bellard (Young MayLay) who voiced CJ confirmed that he is not in Grand Theft Auto 5 via twitter.
Other Characters
A couple casting calls for Take-Two Interactive and Rockstar Games have been found online. Many different types of characters and even a familiar name has appeared among them. What purpose these character will serve is unknown but it is possible they are pedestrians and/or callers for GTA 5 radio shows.
Very Likely for GTA V
This batch of casting calls from Take-Two features the name of James Pedeaston who is a child molester featured in past Grand Theft Auto games. Aside from him, the others are only first names which could mean they are for radio shows. However, last names could be added later.
Matthew (18-25 Male United States)
A liberal young male who believes in a conspiracy made by republicans to undermine America.
Jose (30-40 Male United States)
A white creepy man who thinks that technology is a poison against the wilderness.
