Steven Ogg, the actor behind Trevor from GTA 5, says he feels “nothing” about Grand Theft Auto 6 despite fans asking him about it all the time.
Grand Theft Auto’s single-player characters have created some iconic moments in gaming. Everyone reminisces on CJ from San Andreas, Niko Bellic in GTA IV, and Vice City’s Tommy Vercetti.
However, Grand Theft Auto 5’s trio of Michael, Franklin, and Trevor have gone to a new level. The actors behind the three main characters have become stars and regularly meet GTA fans at conventions and meet and greets. Ned Luke, the actor behind Michael, even regularly streams the game.

“Someone said yesterday ‘at one point you should play GTA 5’ and I said Why? They said ‘cause it’s so great’ and I said one day you should read Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment and he went completely blank.”
Ogg added that “books are my thing” after imploring the interviewer to read Crime and Punishment now.
The clip, which was shared by GTA 6 Countdown, has gone on to reach over 2 million views, with fans ‘shocked’ that the actor hasn’t played his own work.

There have been claims previously that Ogg “hates” the character, but he refuted that by saying it was an “awesome” job. The Canadian would also be open to returning in GTA 6, but would want Trevor to “pass the touch” to new characters by dying early.
