The 'Florida Joker,' who previously alleged that Rockstar used his likeness in the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer, has returned with a new demand.

This time, he's seeking a speaking role in the game. However, it's not a substitute for payment, as he still insists on monetary compensation from Rockstar, threatening legal action if his demands are not met.

In early December, Rockstar officially unveiled the trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6, generating considerable excitement for the upcoming installment in the renowned open-world game series.

Despite the widespread excitement over the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer in early December, Lawrence Sullivan, also known as the Florida Joker, due to his 2017 arrest, expressed distinct dissatisfaction. Sullivan, resembling the Joker in his mugshot, now claims that Rockstar used him as inspiration for a character with purple hair and tattoos featured in the GTA 6 trailer.

Sullivan took to TikTok, urging Rockstar to get in touch with him. He requested at least a million dollars for what he perceives as his "appearance" in the game. Sullivan concluded his video by reiterating that he doesn't want to involve lawyers, but, he promised, "if I've got to, I will."

Notably, actress Lindsay Lohan previously attempted to sue Rockstar for allegedly using her image in GTA 5, but the case was ultimately dismissed.
