Red Dead Redemption 2 Actor Confirms He Has a Role in GTA 6
Jim Santangeli, the actor who played Simon Pearson in Red Dead Redemption 2, has revealed that he also has a role in Grand Theft Auto 6.
The confirmation came during a recent TikTok livestream when fans asked whether he was involved in Rockstar’s upcoming game. Santangeli replied that he has a “small bit” in GTA 6, although he didn’t share any details about the character.
The actor is best known among Rockstar fans for portraying Pearson, the camp cook and butcher of the Van der Linde gang in Red Dead Redemption 2.
While Santangeli suggested his role is minor, the news isn’t particularly surprising. Rockstar has often worked with the same actors across multiple projects, with several performers appearing in both the Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption franchises.
For now, Rockstar has not commented on Santangeli’s statement, and no additional details about his role in GTA 6 have been revealed.
