GTA 5 Actor Auditioned for 60+ GTA 6 Roles but Got No Callbacks from Rockstar

Robert Bogue, the actor behind fan-favorite FIB agent Steve Haines in Grand Theft Auto 5, has revealed a surprisingly frustrating experience trying to return to the franchise. Bogue says he auditioned for more than 60 different roles in GTA 6, only to be met with complete silence from Rockstar Games. The sheer number of attempts makes the lack of response all the more striking, painting a picture of an actor who was clearly eager to remain part of the series that helped define his career.

GTA 6 Pre-Orders Are the Strongest on Record, With $5B Launch Week Projected

Grand Theft Auto 6 is shaping up to be the biggest entertainment launch in history.

To put that in perspective, that figure would be roughly five times the launch performance of GTA 5, a game that itself set multiple records when it released in 2013.
