Casting Call: Grand Theft Auto

We've seen plenty of gaming properties turn into movies over the years, most with disappointing results. There have been rumblings of a GTA movie in the past, such as that time Rockstar had to shoot down Variety's report about Eminem starring in one. If Rockstar does eventually come around to the idea, however, I'm bringing Casting Call back to give them a helping hand.

If you're familiar with our previous Casting Calls for Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed, Gears of War, Uncharted, and Devil May Cry, you're used to this mix of legitimately good ideas and patently stupid ones. Also, imagine that this hypothetical film incorporates major characters from every game from GTA III forward. Don't think too hard about it, as it's mostly just me finding pictures that kinda look like other pictures.

Carl Johnson - Jamie Hector

 

Zero - David Cross

 

Officer Tenpenny - Samuel L. Jackson

 

Lance Vance - 1989 Arsenio Hall

 

Claude - Morrissey

  • Hahaha this is too funny!
  • If there was a GI produced GTA web series starring Dan as Niko, I'd watch it. May be an Emmy or two in there.
  • I can totally see The Rock as Brucie. lol

  • I always thought Billy Grey was more of Ron Perlman.
  • You can't cast Robert Downey Jr. for Gay Tony, Downey Jr. is too fly for that.
  • Dan your amazing!

  • Total sausage-fest.

  • What!? Only two wrestling castings? Niko is spot on by the way.
  • Holy crap, I never realized the Rock, Goldberg and Downy Jr. looked so much like GTA characters.

  • lol these are awesome, i wish you guys did this more often

  • this so awesome hats off DAN
  • Good Shitt!

  • Awesome, I love these! Dan as Niko is spot on...

  • I disagree with The Rock one and the Drake one.
  • lol. I love these things. Dan always finds some great pictures.

  • great job finding 'pictures that look like other pictures' lol.  for some reason i find it a little uncomfortable that you look so much like niko.  anyway, fun article, i like it.  

  • Nice choice for Niko. XD Also Zero/David Cross is a perfect fit. And Officer Tenpenny was actually voiced by Samuel L. Jackson... and his partner Eddie Pulaski by Chris Penn. I thought both of them looked somewhat like their VAs.
  • Lol, I was just playing tbogt, and thought the exact same thing!
