The ‘Florida Joker’ has now revealed that he is not suing Rockstar Games anymore over his likeness in the Grand Theft Auto 6, but he has claimed he wants to be the voice actor.
Ever since a parodied version of himself appeared in the GTA 6 trailer on December 4, 2023, the Florida Joker has been constantly hitting out against Rockstar and Take-Two Interactive.
Whether it be the various claims of suing them, issuing a “final warning,” and demanding $10 million, to even threatening to break the hacker behind the GTA 6 leaks out of prison.
Now, the viral sensation, whose real name is Lawrence Sullivan, has finally revealed they are not suing the developers anymore. Instead, he has asked to voice the character and promote the game, as well as receive at least $50K.

The Florida Joker announced: “GTA, Rockstar, Take-Two, we got to talk, I’m not suing y’all anymore, I’m not suing y’all, but you still out your god damn nuggets. It’s been two whole months.”
“Y’all still haven’t reached out to me, y’all still haven’t DM’d me. Let’s do what’s right, shoot me like fifty thousand, a hundred thousand, let me voice the character,” he further demanded. Sullivan also stated that he wanted to “promote the game and go to every comic-con, meet and greets, let’s go man.”
He ended by claiming: “I’m making the game more relevant, people wanna play it, I’m the reason why that game is so hype right now.”
GTA 6 is set to release in 2025, and it was officially confirmed by Rockstar that it would launch on current-generation consoles, such as PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. It is unknown what role, if any, the Florida Joker lookalike will have in the game when it’s released.
