Voice actor Dave Jackson has apparently outed some information about upcoming Grand Theft Auto content, however many have called the legitimacy of the claim into question - while even more fans immediately jumped to the conclusion that GTA 6 is coming sooner than expected. Whatever the case was, even if Jackson's claims were true, posting about them will surely have consequences.
This all turned into a big piece of news when renowned game industry insider Tom Henderson, who has provided accurate inside scoops about Battlefield, Call of Duty and GTA in the past, Tweeted a screenshot of Jackson's Facebook post.
In said post, the voice actor claims to have been hired by Rockstar Games to play the role of police chief Captain McClane in the "new Grand Theft Auto series". When reached out to for further comment, Jackson claimed he does not yet know specific details of the project he is working on, but a trailer is coming 'very soon'.
Voice actors being kept in the dark about their work is fairly common in order to prevent leaks - famously, the cast of Red Dead Redemption 2 had no idea what they were recording lines for even in the studio, until some of them pieced the details together from the script. Jackson not knowing what he's working on - be it GTA Online DLC, GTA 6 or something else entirely - lines up with reality.
