Sorry to post this if it was already posted, and I am not sure if there is a topic dedicated to "Who voices them"? I really do not hang around the V section as much as other people tounge.gif

 

Just sayin!

 

But anyway, does anyone else think it is Jonah Hill voicing James? If you listen to him in the trailer, he sounds DEAD ON like him.

 

Here is a interview of Jonah Hill back when he did Superbad.

 

 

 

 

How do they not sound the same? Maybe my ears are tricking me, but my eyes could be too. Haha

I can see the connection but it would be weird since Rockstar kept saying NO CELEBRITIES!

Yea, I see what you mean since Rockstar says No Celebrities, but what kind of Celebrities are they talking about? How famous do you have to be to be considered a celebrity.

 

I mean, yes Jonah Hill can be considered a Celebrity, but is he as famous as Brad Pitt or Leonardo DiCaprio or even George Clooney? Haha.

 

Samuel L Jackson did Tenpenny in San Andreas..

 

 

I would think Rockstar means more "quality" actors rather than the ones influencing media. It sounds little insulting, but you can see where it goes to.

 

I can just say, anyone voicing in a video game for the first time, especially GTA V..They will maybe be considered a celebrity after this tounge.gif

 

I don't think Rockstar would wanna use celebrity endorsement to help the sales of the game as well.

 

But anyway, Even the model for James slightly resembles Jonah Hill a bit. Mo-cap? tounge.gif

I don't think it's Jonah Hill, but he's certainly an inspiration for the character.

LMAO at the McLovin image. tounge.gif

 

@irishBonethug

 

That could be plausible as well. It definitely is interesting how some voices are similar. I only did a google search on Danny Tamberelli, because honestly..This is the first I ever heard of him, yet ironically I have heard about some of the shows he was on biggrin.gif.

 

There is not lot of evidence right now, except for the images and 2 trailers. But even when I saw trailer 2 for the first time, and I saw him, Jonah Hill was the first guy to appear in my mind.

There's similarities for sure. I don't think it is him but you can never write anything out. It's definitely more of a reasonable suggestion than some others on here tounge2.gif

Danny Tamberelli plays Jimmy icon14.gif

This.

I can see where you would guess Jonah Hill, but I think it's more likely Danny Tamberelli since he has less celebrity power. Sounds like him, even looks like him these days.

Didn't they say they were only ruling out celebrities for main characters?

If it's him it would be cool if they used a song from his band Jounce on the Radio:

 

 

 

Or if Jimmy would use the phrase "blowhole" even just once haha.

MAAYAN how that dudes grown! I remember him back in the Pete and Pete days! But yeah and Jimmy does sound a lot like jonah too. If it was him then that would be awesome. Even if Rockstar said no celebrities, it wouldn't be bad if they snuck one or two in there wink.gif

Haha, Yea I just noticed the other thread a little while ago. Combined the 2 threads together and it would be like

 

Jonah Hill vs Danny Tamberelli

 

Might just add a poll on this thread for the fun of it.

 

But yea, I'm starting to see that as well. Time will tell and the truth will be revealed when the game comes out tounge.gif.

 

Some reason, I am not surprised Greg Miller was the one to mention him in the first place. I mean the credibility does go up a little knowing it is from IGN and IGN is about gaming.

 

Then again sometimes these situations are too good to be true. IGN's credibility in my opinion is little tipsy at times, since they could over hype anything. My only other reason for doubting it is, if it is true and if Rockstar are keeping the names confidential, and it gets out. Could something like this cost someone's job at IGN?

Nah man Jonah is a celebrity, plus look at the guy that voiced Niko Bellic. Just by voicing a main character in GTA they wont become a celebrity on the level of Jonah Hill or Brad Pitt or w/e.

 

Also, they made the "no celebrities" statement after San Andreas.
