Meanwhile, we’ve been hearing more and more rumors about “GTA 6”, and some of them have been getting borderline crazy. For example, it’s recently been claimed that Ryan Gosling has been approached for the role of the protagonist in the next installment in the franchise, and the actor has apparently agreed.
While this could definitely end up happening, we wouldn’t treat this rumor very seriously at the moment as it sounds a bit silly, plus Gosling himself hasn’t made any comments on the situation. If it’s true though, it could definitely make for a more interesting, cinematic experience with “GTA 6” and bring the franchise into a new era.
It certainly wouldn’t be the first major title to use a popular actor for a main character, as “Call of Duty” did that recently with Kevin Spacey in “Advanced Warfare”, and that move was received quite well by the community. Ryan Gosling is a well-known actor with a large fan base as well, and this could be a very beneficial move for the franchise if it’s true.
