Jason Duval has a deep and somewhat raspy voice, as can be heard in GTA 6 trailer 2, and that seems to have been a reason for rumors about Troy Baker possibly playing him. His portrayal of Joel Miller from Naughty Dog's The Last Of Us franchise does sound a tad similar.

Such speculations were being made even back when Grand Theft Auto 6's first trailer came out. Troy Baker's recent Instagram story, as mentioned, has also contributed to the rumors. It featured an official GTA 6 screenshot of Jason on a new motorcycle, and was captioned:

"See? Y'all didn't believe me. Can't wait for this game"

Troy Baker is a veteran voice actor. He recently played Indiana Jones in Bethesda's Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him involved in a big project like Grand Theft Auto 6. This title is perhaps the most anticipated video game there has ever been, and will be the first fresh installment in the series in more than a decade.

However, Rockstar Games hasn't made any such indications, and Troy Baker himself uploaded an Instagram story confirming that he is not playing Jason in Grand Theft Auto 6.

"Oh, FFS. No its not me. Was just excited for the game"
