Of course, even if the theories are true, fans cannot expect a direct confirmation from the actor for quite some time. This was revealed by Ned Luke himself in an interview earlier. The actor addressing the viral GTA 6 theories stated, Who knows if even I’m in it. I mean historically you would say ‘no’ because they never reuse the protagonist. But I still have the NDA that I’m under so even if I knew anything I couldn’t say anything.”

On the contrary, another important aspect to consider is the fact that Ned Luke is known for his wit and pranks. Hence, there’s also a strong possibility of the actor making such cryptic posts just to tease fans and fuel theories until it’s time for an official reveal. But Rockstar Games fans are no strangers to some surprises.
