GTA 5 Actor Responds to Fans’ Desperation for GTA Online Appearance

There is speculation that Ned Luke, who portrays Michael in GTA 5, may make an appearance in GTA Online, but fans have mixed reactions to this possibility.

In recent years, numerous characters from the single-player mode of GTA V have joined GTA Online. Trevor and Franklin, who are two of the main characters in the game, have both made appearances. Trevor even took charge of his own heist and Franklin was involved in The Contract update.

So far, only one of the three primary characters, Michael, has not made an appearance in GTA Online. Despite some updates that led fans to believe the mastermind from the single-player game would finally show up, they have ultimately been disappointed.

As the highly-anticipated Bottom Dollar Bounties update approaches, fans are excited to see the return of Maude Eccles, the Bounty Hunter, in the single-player mode. This has only increased their eagerness for Michael to also be a part of the action.

In fact, one fan even tweeted that they are convinced he will be included in GTA Online’s “final”major update. This tweet caught the attention of Ned Luke, the voice behind the character, who ultimately showed his approval by liking the post.

The actor also acknowledged another fan’s comment about wanting a DLC about Michael in the game. “That would be a great addition,”Luke replied.

Despite some fans interpreting the interactions as a sign of Michael’s eventual appearance, there are also those who remain unsure.

One person stated that this does not confirm anything, but it does indicate that he is willing to participate. Another person cautioned against getting too excited, pointing out that he is most likely under a non-disclosure agreement with Rockstar and would not reveal any information.

“Another fan expressed their excitement at the possibility of a final mission with Franklin, Michael, and Trevor. However, another commenter pointed out the tendency of GTA fans to set themselves up for disappointment, despite their own desire for a Michael DLC.”

It is still uncertain if he will reprise his role before the release of GTA 6, but many fans are still hopeful for the possibility.
