This Dude May Be The Star of ‘Grand Theft Auto V’

Ned Luke may be the latest to voice a protagonist in the zillion-dollar cultural juggernaut that is the Grand Theft Auto series. Thanks to intrepid sleuthing by Official PlayStation magazine his potential role was uncovered. All involved in this reveal are either dead or missing, further testifying to the reports accuracy.*

Kotaku:

While Rockstar has released almost no details concering the cast or characters of the upcoming  Grand Theft Auto V, that’s not stopping people from speculating. Or, in this case, making rather convincing arguments.

Some detective work from the Official PlayStation Magazine and some  GTA  fan sites has turned up the name Ned Luke, an actor who not only looks like the middle-aged white guy from  the  GTAV  trailer, butsounds like the clip’s narrator, too.

What’s more, there are people on Twitter like actor  Jimmy Taenaka  and a woman saying she’s his cousin (I know, I know) talking about his supposed role, while Luke’s Twitter account has recently been deleted, but not before  it was noticed  he was following the game’s developer, Rockstar Games.

Now, having the one man provide a face and a voice is rare. Indeed, Team Bondi’s  LA Noire  (another Rockstar-published game) is one of the only major titles to do so, and I wouldn’t have thought that technology would be used here. But hey, maybe it has!

*That is a lie.
