This went down well amongst fans, with the ones from Florida stating the work Rockstar has done to capture their home is“too realistic,”but this is Rockstar Games we’re talking about so was there ever any doubt?
Unfortunately, some weren’t impressed with the trailer, namely Lawrence ‘Florida Joker’ Sullivan, whose likeness can be spotted in one shot of the trailer. The scene is a reference to Sullivan’s infamous mugshot picture from one of his arrests, which quickly became a meme due to his appearance resembling that of the DC comic character.
Following hisinitial responsewhere he said “GTA, we gotta talk,” he’s followed up with another, though this time he’s begging for cold, hard cash for his likeness to remain in the game.
In his most recent TikTok hesays: “We got to talk, GTA. We gotta talk. Or not, you got to give me like a mil or two … Florida Joker ain’t having that. Y’all took my likeness, Y’all took my life.”
Rockstar Games hasn’t responded to Sullivan’s demands, and likely never will given they have far bigger fish to fry.
