Explained simply
Grand Theft Auto is a long-running series of open-world action games made by Rockstar Games. Each game tells a new story with different characters, while keeping the broad setting of crime and city life.
GTA 5 featured Ned Luke, Shawn Fonteno and Steven Ogg, while Young Maylay voiced CJ in the earlier game San Andreas. Actors in the series can become closely associated with their characters, and fans may remember those performances for years.
The performers in GTA 6 will work within Rockstar’s creative direction, as actors in the previous games did. Their roles may bring lasting recognition, while the new game also carries forward a series with an established audience.
