Reggie Talley

Reggie Talley is an actor who will play an as-yet undisclosed NPC role in Grand Theft Auto 6.

History

Background

There's currently not much public information about Reggie Talley's early life or career prior to his connection to GTA VI. Professionally, he's been active as an actor, writer, director, and producer, with a growing presence in television.

Development

Concept and Creation

Reggie Talley's link to Grand Theft Auto VI became public in June 2022 when he listed a voice role for a game project titled "Fireball" on his resume¹ (which has since been private), noting the final title was "TBD." The timing and association with other Rockstar-affiliated actors led fans to believe "Fireball" was an internal codename for GTA VI.

Codenames like "Fireball" and "Project Americas" have popped up repeatedly during the game's long and secretive development, suggesting Rockstar has been using multiple aliases to keep things under wraps.

Portrayal

Talley is expected to provide voice work—and possibly motion capture—for his character in GTA VI. This would mark a new step in his career, adding video games to his resume alongside TV appearances in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Power Book III: Raising Kanan. As of now, Rockstar hasn't confirmed who he plays or how significant the role will be.

Reception

Though details about Talley's character are still under lock and key, the discovery of his involvement added fuel to the growing hype around GTA VI. Fans have been dissecting resume leaks and casting breadcrumbs for years, and Talley's listing helped strengthen the "Fireball = GTA VI" theory. Full reception, of course, will depend on his actual role once the game drops.
