What GTA V’s main characters look like in real life

If you lined up at midnight to secure your copy of Rockstar’s latest crime opus, Grand Theft Auto V, you likely skipped work, played it all day, and are just now coming out of your GTA Vcoma, lifelessly staring at the internet through your bloodshot eyes. If your brain is still in GTA V mode but your body says no more — or you just want to see the faces and voices behind Michael, Franklin, and Trevor — then the above picture will satisfy your state of being.

From left to right: Steven Ogg plays the rough-around-the-edges desert hooligan Trevor Phillips, Shawn Fonteno plays repo-man-with-a-shady-past Franklin Clinton, and Ned Luke plays former-criminal-turned-current-criminal Michael De Santa.

For the first time in the crime sim series, you assume the role of three main characters rather than just the one. This should make the narrative more interesting than narratives past, but the web is decidedly mixed on the matter. Certain outlets feel weaving the three stories together works wonderfully, while other outlets feel this is the only place where the game stumbles.

Last night during the game’s release, Steven Ogg showed up to some New York City Gamestops and graced the avid fans with the voice of Trevor Phillips. He posted a quick video to Facebook. It’s always fun to see where your favorite game characters come from, and even more interesting when it’s not Nolan North (not that we’d be complaining).
