Lawrence “Florida Joker” Sullivan is demanding $2 million from Rockstar Games for allegedly using his likeness in GTA 6 without his consent.
Sullivan – former tattoo model It went viral in 2017 When his photo showed his resemblance to the Joker – he was quick to jump on social media to discuss the uncanny similarities between him and the character featured in the GTA 6 teaser.
Last Tuesday, Sullivan responded to the trailer on TikTok and said he thought the character was “inspired by [him]”, and invited Rockstar to reach out to “talk.” However, it was not clear whether he was criticizing the company for using his image without his permission or whether he was extending a call for deeper cooperation.
However, there is no such uncertainty now, because Sullivan’s demands are unambiguous.

“Everyone says I’m hallucinating,” Sullivan said in a new TikTok post published yesterday. “I’m not the Joker from GTA 6. You got your damn nuggets out. This is me. This is me.”
“We have to talk, JTA. We have to talk. Or no, you have to give me a million.”[lion] “Or two,” Sullivan added.
“Florida Joker doesn’t have that. You took my likeness, you took my life.”
So far, there’s been no update from Rockstar or Sullivan confirming that either party has reached out, or if a compromise has been reached.
GTA 6 has already broken records even though it has been at least a year since its release.
The first trailer for the game, which Rockstar released ahead of schedule after it was leaked on Monday, now holds the record for the most viewed video on YouTube in 24 hours that is not a music video, according to Guinness World Records.
This also makes it the most viewed video game on YouTube, according to the organisation, reaching 90,421,491 views in just 24 hours.
