GTA V codenamed 'Rush', characters uncovered?Casting calls could relate to next Grand Theft AutoThat's if the conclusions of industry leakaholic Superannuation's latest search engine sweep hold any water.The search uncovered a casting call for an "interactive project" called "Rush" from Telsey & Company, a firm regularly used by Rockstar.The call itself was for the following GTA-friendly sounding characters:   Mitch Hayes:   38 - Annoying, wise cracking, highly successful FBI agent. In great shape. Does triathlons, drinks low cal beer, but still has a sense of humor.   Miguel Gonzalez:   25 Young Mexican American FBI agent, caught between a few mob bosses. Very clean cut   Clyde:   23 - Moronic, almost inbred and creepy white trash hillbilly. Very naïve but in a creepy 'it's only incest sort of way'   Brother Adam:   Welsh monk / cult leader / yoga teacher - 50, very lithe, very into exploring your personal tension through gripping massage. Needs Welsh accent.   Mrs Avery:   Neurotic soccer mom, home maker, 48, anxious and addled on pain killers. Very angry at neighbor MRS Bell.   Mrs Bell:   Swinger, and mellow Californian divorcee. 45. Ugly but comfortable with self.   Eddie:   47 - Weed evangelist, guy who started smoking at 30, and is now a leading proponent of marijuana's fantastic properties. White, awkward.   Ira Bernstein:   56 - publicist for an actress known as America's newest sweetheart who just so happens to love animals, orphans, drugs and sex. He's always trying to hide her latest indiscretion.   Kevin De Silva:   18 - Albert's fat, FPS playing gamer son. Smokes a lot of weed, has anxiety issues and a card for a bad back, very soft, very opinionated. Into making racist comments while playing online.   Harut Vartanyan:42-52 years old - Armenian car dealer, moneylender, would be Fagin and would be bully. Heavily connected to the underworld, but irritates people so much no one likes him.   Nervous Jerry:   48 - paranoiac living in the sticks, near Simon, completely paranoid, and terrified of Simon.   Calvin North:   55 - clapped out FBI agent who now mostly works offering advice on TV shows - whose only claim to fame turns out to be entirely false - but a decent guy in other ways. Badly dressed. Divorced. Putting on weight.   Jerry Cole:   53 - disabled IT expert and criminal information vendor.   Rich Roberts:   English hardman actor, 35, who acts tough but who wants to do serious work - the only problem is he can't quite read the words.Alex:   white 52 yr old loosie goosie hippy rich guy who has lost his money and is getting desperate but trying not to.   Scarlet:   45-52 years old - unshaven female spiritualist and hippy with a love of exploring the wilderness. Very into journeys.   Chad:   29 - pretty boy misogynist Beverly Hills party boy. Made money, but not as cool as he thinks he is.   Tae Wong:   39 - somewhat incompetent Chinese mobster, loves doing ecstasy, going to raves.   Taes Translator:   45 - VERY STRAIGHT LACED Chinese translator, terrified of his boss's dad. Male, awkward. Needs to speak Chinese.You can add all that to the possible GTA V web domains uncovered at the end of last month. All speculation, remember, but these bits and pieces all seem to fit together.

I don't think it is, I've seen 4 or 5 of these and they've all been different

[tenpennyisplainevil]

looks real to me...

[Staten]

This is the one that has the highest chance of being real, since it was found before the other, fake, one, and came from a kind of reputable source. We won't know for sure until R* start giving us names.

[Jyak]

I've been wondering the same thing for the past few weeks.

 

 

52 years old - Armenian car dealer, moneylender, would be Fagin and would be bully. Heavily connected to the underworld, but irritates people so much no one likes him.

 

Could be that middle-aged man who's depicted the majority of the time in the trailer, the one everyone thought they found out who acted him.

 

Can anyone else find similarities in the characters we've seen in the trailer and the descriptions of the characters?

The age would fit, but as a main character it sounds as if he wouldn't be easy for the player to warm to. It's actually from this cast list that people have got the name Albert De Silva, who could be the main character.

[bluetops]

I always wonder the name Albert De Silva isn't included in all of the casting calls I've read(they're all the same though). But the name "Albert" is talked about in the casting call.

 

 

Kevin De Silva:

  18 - Albert's fat, FPS playing gamer son. Smokes a lot of weed, has anxiety issues and a card for a bad back, very soft, very opinionated. Into making racist comments while playing online.

 

 

I am thinking that the Albert De Silva Character has already an actor even before this casting call 'arrived' in the internet. Probably more proof he is the Protag?

 

Or he is really not included in the game,just being talked about - this will make Kevin De Silva character nonsense

 

Well,we still don't know that thing, that magic

We have totally no idea what's happening with the characters.So let's just wait for another trailer or announcement.

Albert and simon are talked about but not on the list. The De silva brothers

Albert- Ned luke

Simon- Guy in Red Car

I think 52 is too old for him. He doesn't look any older than 45.

[iGrandTheftAuto]

looks real to me...

Same here. I like it, but they could change it up just a little.

[F1 fan]

My guess is that the list is a fugazi. I think it's genuine, but the characters were re written to not give too much away. Just a hunch. My theory involves R* re-writing the character bios, but the basic details (age, ethnicity etc) are the same.

[Hove Beach]

Seems legit , it does mention Los Santos sites, beverly hills, so that makes it a whole lot more believable considering if someone faked it that person had to take a guess on where the next GTA game would take place..

 

Doesnt sound very promising to me though, lot of old people n plenty of cops and agents. The guy in the trailer could be Alex on the list :

   white 52 yr old loosie goosie hippy rich guy who has lost his money and is getting desperate but trying not to.

i hope this isnt it

Ned Luke is actually 53, so the age fits with the person on the trailer.

But now Armenian I don't think so. Reason why because he speaks English(American) correctly.

Armenian's usualy aren't caucasian.

 

Plus Armenia has a very nice weather so...

 

Also this:

Alex: white 52 yr old loosie goosie hippy rich guy who has lost his money and is getting desperate but trying not to.

 

IMO this fits the guy that looks like Ned Luke.

A guy described as a "hippy" wouldn't where a suit or drive a sports car though....

[VATG]

could be the dude it the red convertible?

'Miguel Gonzalez: 25 Young Mexican American FBI agent, caught between a few mob bosses. Very clean cut'

 

'Mrs Bell: Swinger, and mellow Californian divorcee. 45. Ugly but comfortable with self.'

 

to be hones i don't think the protagonist has kids imo is talking about having kids but if im wrong...

"family man. So, I bought a big house. Came here, put my feet up, and thought I be a dad like all the other dads. My kids, would be like the kids on TV."

'18 - Albert's fat, FPS playing gamer son. Smokes a lot of weed, has anxiety issues and a card for a bad back, very soft, very opinionated. Into making racist comments while playing online.'

 

could be are guy...?

'Harut Vartanyan: 42-52 years old - Armenian car dealer, moneylender, would be Fagin and would be bully. Heavily connected to the underworld, but irritates people so much no one likes him.'

 

notice their ages all of them more or less are in the same age range as the main character, could be a connection (or not).

'Nervous Jerry: 48 - paranoiac living in the sticks, near Simon, completely paranoid, and terrified of Simon.'

 

'Calvin North: 55 - clapped out FBI agent who now mostly works offering advice on TV shows - whose only claim to fame turns out to be entirely false - but a decent guy in other ways. Badly dressed. Divorced. Putting on weight.'

 

'Jerry Cole: 53 - disabled IT expert and criminal information vendor.'

 

'Alex: white 52 yr old loosie goosie hippy rich guy who has lost his money and is getting desperate but trying not to.'

 

'Scarlet: 45-52 years old - unshaven female spiritualist and hippy with a love of exploring the wilderness. Very into journeys.'

 

'Chad: 29 - pretty boy misogynist Beverly Hills party boy. Made money, but not as cool as he thinks he is.'

Depends on your definition of "hippy". Some people's definition is based on political point of view and they consider activists "hippies".

 

Maybe he was an activist of some kind. Maybe he was robbing that jewelry store to take his riches back from other rich people so he could feel justified in his actions rather than robbing poor people.

 

I don't really think that's how it is but I'm just throwing out ideas.

Exacly.

 

He lost his money and he's now trying to get it back with robing and sh*t.

 

Makes sense.

[diablo440]

nothing except the video and twitter post are "proven"..

 

Are noobs still saying the deepthoat garbage was real?

[Stinky12]

I give this a huge ? until the game releases.

[Gouranga Dan]

Just about anyone can put up one of those casting calls. This doesn't mean anything and it was confirmed fake.

 

Remember how, right after this "leak" was discovered, there was another one right afterward that was just like it? It featured James Pedeaston.

 

Now do you really think that right after a leak was published, we would publish another casting call right afterward which confirms everything?

[Brawly]

i believe it's real, how else would r* have casted people and the description seems more like real actors, ned luke for example rather than just made up characters and its been speculated that they are using motion scan for the actors faces.

[loony979]

Why make a code for the casting call ? FAKE to me ,so sorry about that.

Because if they said "GTA V Casting Call" it would be all over gaming websites and confirming that GTA V existed before R* even announced it.

They used a different casting agency as a proxy. Applications were then sent from that casting agency to Take Two. If it were real then nowhere on the site would it mention Take Two Interactive, Rockstar Games, or the Grand Theft Auto franchise.

Uhh yeah and that's why they called it 'Rush' so it doesn't even prove it's GTA V anyway even though I think it is.

How you know that? Source? Sorry sounds made up dude.

I'm telling you that your sources are questionable. Now you're telling me my sources for calling your sources questionable are questionable. #smh

 

Go ahead, try and find yourself a casting call from any previous GTA game. I dare you.

lol What sources? I'm basing it off the information on the first page. I don't know it just seems you're making it up, how would you know the methods that Take Two does to cast people?

 

That's why I said they use codenames for their games there probably is a casting call for it just code named something else, I have no idea how this 'Rush' casting call was found.
