The actor who played Trevor Philips in Grand Theft Auto V.Trevor Philips, a career criminal, is one the three playable characters in GTA V and you could say he's a bit of a hot head. In real life, the Canadian actor who plays Trevor Philips is Steven Ogg. He has a penchant for playing bad guys, but apparently not for playing video games.

Even if he doesn't end up purchasing and playing GTA VI, it's almost guaranteed to be a runaway success, based on the pre-release hype.
