While it would be atypical of the franchise to do so, it could benefit Grand Theft Auto 6 to bring in some of Grand Theft Auto 5's characters, as they might be too big to ignore. Every player is entitled to their own favorite characters in the franchise, but the triple protagonists of GTA 5 have undoubtedly left one of the biggest collective marks on the series. They've had such an impact on players, it begs the question if GTA 6 can get away with not including them without it being detrimental to the game.

Despite all the GTA 6 leaks have revealed about its story, Grand Theft Auto 5 characters are so far absent, however, the leaks really didn't offer an incredibly in-depth perspective of what the game will contain, only broad strokes of content. There are still many areas of the game players know little or nothing about, and that includes its cast list.

While there have been a series of smaller GTA 6 leaks in recent weeks and months, none of those alleged leaks offered what we would consider reliable examples of actual in-game footage/screenshots. That all changed a little earlier today when one of the biggest leaks in video game history seemingly gave the world their first look at an in-progress build of GTA 6.

So far as anyone can tell at this early stage, the media included in that leak has been traced back to a GTA Forums user known as “teapotuberhacker.” As their name implies, the user says that they were also involved with the recent Uber leaks. It’s not clear at this time if there is a direct relationship between the two leaks beyond that user’s reported involvement. It’s also not clear if they are the sole source of these leaks or if they directly acquired them from their apparent source.

Lewis Milestone directed this poetic, optimistic ode to the American infantryman, a ‘lone patrol’ saga that emphasizes its soldiers’ hopes and fears. The lineup of fresh, eager acting talent is remarkable: Dana Andrews, Richard Conte, George Tyne, John Ireland, Lloyd Bridges, Sterling Holloway, Norman Lloyd, Herbert Rudley, Richard Benedict, Huntz Hall, James Cardwell, Steve Brodie. Voiceovers and ‘ballads’ give a six-mile beachhead incursion the tone of a spiritual rumination. A beautiful full film restoration brings the image back to prime quality. The controversial filmmakers and the unusual production circumstances are covered in Alan K. Rode’s commentary.
