As of October 29, 2026, Rockstar Games has not named a single GTA 6 voice actor. Its official GTA VI site profiles the characters but credits no performers, and the studio has not published a cast list. Only two actors are known to have said publicly that they are in the game: Stephen Root, widely reported to play Brian Heder, and Jim Santangeli, who calls his part "a little small bit." The actors most often linked to Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos are fan theories that neither Rockstar nor the actors have confirmed.

GTA 6 cast: confirmed and reported#

"Confirmed" below means the actor said it on the record. No row is confirmed by Rockstar, because Rockstar has confirmed nothing.

Stephen Root: the one big name on the record#

Stephen Root, known for King of the Hill, Office Space and Barry, confirmed he is in GTA 6 when the Associated Press asked him at the BAFTA TV Tea Party in Beverly Hills in September 2026. "Yeah, you're going to see me in there," he said, as quoted by GameSpot. He added that his character was in Rockstar's first rollout of the game and that "there were too many people that knew me from King of the Hill and my voice."

Root did not name his character. GameSpot notes that "he didn't confirm as much in the interview clip," and GamesRadar+ says he "didn't specify who he's depicting." Fans matched his voice to Brian Heder in the trailers long before the interview, and GameSpot, Polygon and IGN Nordic all report him as Brian. Treat "Root is in GTA 6" as confirmed and "Root plays Brian Heder" as very likely but not official.

Rockstar's character profile describes Brian as "a classic drug runner from the golden age of smuggling in the Keys" who moves product through his boat yard with his third wife, Lori, and lets Jason live rent-free at one of his properties in exchange for help with "local shakedowns."

Jim Santangeli: a small part, character unknown#

Jim Santangeli, who played Simon Pearson in Red Dead Redemption 2, said during a TikTok Live in June 2026 that he worked on GTA 6, according to GTABoom. He described the role as "a little small bit" and "some cool stuff, but small," and did not say who he plays. Rockstar has not commented.

Who voices Lucia in GTA 6?#

Rockstar has not said. The name fans attach to Lucia Caminos is Manni L. Perez, an actor GameSpot lists as "one of the most frequently discussed candidates," based on perceived similarities in look and voice. GameSpot is clear that this "doesn't establish that she definitely worked on GTA 6."

Perez held her first Instagram Live in late October 2026. Polygon reports that in the 11-minute session she never mentioned GTA 6 or Lucia, and TheGamer says she ignored the many comments about the game. Polygon also reports that harassment from fans pushed her to delete her social media accounts in mid-2025. Her silence fits an actor under a non-disclosure agreement, but it is not a confirmation, and we do not treat it as one.

Who voices Jason in GTA 6?#

Also unconfirmed. Dylan Rourke, whose credits include single episodes of Modern Family and Grey's Anatomy, is the name most often linked to Jason Duval. Dexerto calls him the fans' leading candidate and notes that "neither he nor Rockstar has confirmed his casting." GameSpot adds that there is "no public confirmation or even a hint from Rourke that he plays Jason." In 2025, GamesRadar+ reported that fans had pegged a different actor, Gregory Connors, for the part, which shows how quickly these theories move.

Three actors have publicly ruled themselves out of the role:

  • Troy Baker told The Movie Dweeb in April 2024 that it was not him, and that he wanted the real actor "to get credit for his work," Kotaku reported.
  • Roger Craig Smith posted "Nope. Not me" after Trailer 2 in May 2025, then clarified that it is "NOT my voice in that trailer," per GamesRadar+.
  • Rob Brinkmann said in a video, "you got it wrong, folks. I'm so sorry, I'm not your guy," Dexerto reported on October 29, 2026.

Cal Hampton and the rest of the cast#

Comedian Bobby Moynihan, a Saturday Night Live alum, is the fans' pick for Cal Hampton, Jason's friend who listens to Coast Guard radio for fun. Game Rant reports that the GTA insider GameRoll is "95% sure," pointing to the voice, a physical resemblance and the fact that Moynihan follows Dylan Rourke. That is circumstantial, and Moynihan has not commented.

No actor has been confirmed or credibly reported for Boobie Ike, Dre'Quan Priest, Real Dimez (Bae-Luxe and Roxy) or Raul Bautista. For who these characters are, see our GTA 6 characters guide.

When will the full cast be revealed?#

Rockstar has not said. In September 2026, Insider Gaming reported, citing the GTAVIoclock podcast, that Rockstar reminded its cast of their non-disclosure agreements after Root's interview: "The date you may announce your involvement is still November 19th." The claim rests on a podcast's account, and Rockstar has not confirmed it.

If that report is right, actors can speak about their roles from launch day, and the in-game credits will settle the question for everyone who finishes the story. We will update this page as actors and Rockstar confirm roles.
