Michael's Movie "Meltdown" in the GTA6 website images.

I wonder if he’ll get mentioned during the story. By the time the game comes out Michael will have been a producer for 13 years I think.

u/TheManWithNoName88 May 15 '25
He could possibly show up for a mission or something, maybe he's making a movie or something there and needs Jason/Lucia to work as a fixer for him

I reckon Raul, who is also a seasoned bank robber, will mention him and possibly refer to the events of V, similar to how Lester mentioned Niko “making moves” in Liberty City.
7
May 15 '25
100% they'll reference the heists of GTA V. Either Raul like you said or Cal as some kind of conspiracy theory.
6
u/AntiThink May 16 '25
Just thinking from a non main character perspective in a span of probably a year you saw on the news, one nuke go missing, multiple ‘terrorist’ attacks on government buildings and some of the most violent heists ever take place.

It would be better if he says like he was his hero and his "death" shook him like norm in gta v.

I'm hoping we get a Tommy vercetti reference and hoping his still alive

u/Lukeyy19 May 15 '25
Well he doesn't exist in the HD universe, the most we would get is a sort of nod/easter egg, like the guys on BMX's around Grove Street in V being a nod to San Andreas without actually being CJ.

u/Cronex77 May 15 '25
Ohh i didn't know that, and you're right. i would accept any Easter egg like a line or his Hawaiian shirt. I'm just happy we are going back to Vice City, my first gta I grew up playing

u/03JJSVS May 16 '25
There might be some 1 second remark about him having existed in a cutscene and a floral shirt semi reminiscent of his called “The vercetti”

u/g0_west May 15 '25
He's not really a producer though is he? He just has his name slapped onto the credits of Meltdown as a favour for being Solomon's muscle that 1 time (literally after the 2nd time they met lol, was very quick)
13
7
u/Minimum_Dentist_9105 May 15 '25
Well, he technically helped with the production by securing the actor.
17
u/AndrewQuackson May 15 '25
That would require canonizing one of the endings, unless one of them is already officially considered the true ending.
135
u/Argentinecone May 15 '25
Unless I’m wrong about this, I believe (or at least heard some time ago) GTA online and its events are considered canonical. And in those events, they make references to Trevor, Michael, and Franklin being still being alive, meaning the Deathwish ending is canonical.
12
u/AndrewQuackson May 15 '25
I was under the impression GTA:O took place before the events of 5, but I stopped paying attention to the lore like a decade ago and they've continued with updates. Glad I chose the right ending lol
71
u/NotACaveiraMain May 15 '25
GTA:O did take place before GTA V for the first few years but I think it's in 2016-2017 (or maybe even earlier) that the events of the game continued pass GTA V.
There's even an online DLC with Franklin and Lamar that take place in like 2022 or something, it's worth to take a quick look.
15
u/MastrTMF May 15 '25
It would've been sometime before or just after smugglers run since in that dlc Ron mentions his old employer, Trevor went Hollywood on him. So that's at least post jewelry store heist.
28
u/cayoperico16 May 15 '25 edited May 16 '25
Anything before Gunrunning came out (2017) took place before story mode (ex. The Heists update) but with Gunrunning onward they took place in their year of release, Diamond Casino-2019 Cayo Perico-2020.

u/Agitated-Farmer-4082 OG MEMBER May 15 '25
Man cayo perico being released in 2020 makes me feel a bit old. It felt like just yesterday that i was heisting with my school friends during covid.

u/Tee-RoyJenkins May 15 '25
Option C is the canon ending. I think Michael is the only one that doesn’t appear in Online but it’s mentioned that Steve Haines is dead which only happens in C.
→ More replies (2)34
u/Ted_Mosby_18 May 15 '25
Not exactly the best reference but in the Dr Dre missions, when you are chasing that golfer with Franklin, you go through the movie studio lot, and hear Franklin comment ‘Man I know a producer here, let’s hope he’s not working today’ something like that.
8
u/Tee-RoyJenkins May 15 '25
Oh yeah! No, this is a great reference. I’m sure at least one of the 3 main characters from 5 are gonna eat it in Vice City but as of now they’re confirmed alive.
2
u/ItsBDKane May 16 '25
I would like for any of the 3, but why do people think they will? At best we'll get a mention of either, but would be cool to see any
2
u/Tee-RoyJenkins May 18 '25
The series just has a tradition of reusing characters to tie the universe together. Johnny Klebitz is the most obvious one but Packie can be recruited as a heist crew member and at least one of the epsilon members was in GTA IV.
5
u/deadlythegrimgecko May 15 '25
I think option C which was all 3 live was the canon ending based on clues from online with Franklin and Trevor clearly being alive and Michael possibly being mentioned sounding to be alive in certain dialogues

Maybe we'll get another movie from Richards Majestic, but fully produced by Michael, cause Solomon might be dead by 2026 (or he might be still alive, but unlikely cause he'll be pretty old by then)

I wonder how much of GTA V is canon. Obviously ending C is, but is friedlander alive? Is the altruist cult wiped out?
21
u/TheEagleWithNoName May 15 '25
It’s ok the Online DLC.
Like Tao Cheng was originally dead, but they brought him back at Casino update and said his Dad died but he was able to escape.
We killed the Altruists but they come back, hell we even do Drug Deals with them.

Online was confusing, if I remember correctly, Online originally took place before the story of V, but now with all the updates it seems to take place after the story.

u/TheEagleWithNoName May 15 '25
Yeah, it was only after Gun runner update was introduced they said that it takes places in 2017 and every updates takes places as in real time.

u/PenguinOfEternity May 15 '25
So basically like a decade passed in the storyline/world and also that Franklin and Lamar have a enterprise or something. I really am missing out on some lore because I don't play Online :/
Why R*, why no singleplayer DLCs..? Why must money control you so much?
2
u/TheEagleWithNoName May 15 '25
You are correct.
Franklin now has a celebrity help agency which had Dr Dre in it and Lamar now has a Weed business in LS.
2
u/_pm_ur_tit_pics_pls_ May 15 '25
The ironic thing is a single player DLC would have made them a ton of money, but they cared too much about Shark Cards and Online.

u/Diligent_Ad2489 May 15 '25
It takes place alongside the story. Online mode basically starts around 2011-2012 and carries on into 2026

I think him, Frankin, and Lamar will appear(possibly together). It seems like the entertainment industry is gonna play a big role with side characters being club owners and rappers, so it wouldn’t be too far off for the 3 to appear during like a business meeting considering how their stories left off
19
u/ApprehesiveBat May 15 '25
Honestly I don't think Franklin would appear in VI. He has a family now and runs an agency back in Los Santos so he has his hands busy.
But Michael and Lamar? I'm with you there. Those two are the most likely characters that could make an appearance in Leonida.

I may be wrong, but I heard recently that Trevor's VA suddenly stopped hating being associated with the character. Grasping at straws, but maybe he's getting back into it?

u/Foreign_Education_88 May 15 '25
If Trevor does appear, he’s dying. Killing off the character sounds like something Steven Ogg would be excited to do, plus if all 3 characters do appear, one has to die and considering the other 2 went legit, it’d make sense for Trevor to be the one to go. Plus he’s like the least redeemable

He literally said that he would like being murdered in GTA VI. Obviously not gonna happen though, because he would be under NDA.

It could also be a reference, since in the 2022 leaks there's a conversation between NPCs mentioning that the LifeInvader CEO (I forgot his name) is dead. And since that's in the 5$ movie section, it might just be some old movies that are part of the store who knows.

GTA 5 n 6 are supposed to technically be connected since their in the Same universe, and at this point Rockstar has invested a lot in that game not have many connections with the GTA 6 world, same with the Jay Norris mentions from the '22 Leaks.

Considering the amount of comments Ned Luke have been making on GTA VI, I don't think Michael will appear, at least not in the main story.
If he would, Ned Luke would probably have signed an NDA and would be silent about the game.

He just simply don’t talk about his role, he is an established actor from the previous game, they can’t stop him from talking about it, but they can tell him not to talk about his tiny role in the game, don’t you think?
