Another name has surfaced in the long-running guessing game over who voices whom in Grand Theft Auto 6, and this time it points to an actor already tied to a major PlayStation release. Brett Gipson, who plays Sabretooth in Marvel’s Wolverine, is credited with a supporting role in Rockstar’s next open-world game. The connection comes from his own professional acting resume rather than any official cast reveal.
Quick answer: Brett Gipson, the voice of Sabretooth in Marvel’s Wolverine, is listed on his Actors Access resume as playing a supporting character named “Ellis” in GTA 6. Rockstar has not confirmed the role, and nothing else about the character is officially known.
Where the GTA 6 “Ellis” credit comes from
The credit appears on Gipson’s resume hosted on Actors Access, the casting platform where performers list their work. Alongside his lead role as Sabretooth, the listing names a character called Ellis in Grand Theft Auto 6, described as a supporting part. That single line is the entire basis for the discovery.
Because Rockstar keeps GTA 6’s story and cast under tight wraps, there is no detail about how large Ellis’s role is. He could be a one-off NPC players bump into, or a figure woven more directly into the campaign. Nothing beyond the name and the “supporting” label is confirmed.
Who is Brett Gipson
Gipson is the actor behind Sabretooth, the main antagonist in Insomniac Games’ Marvel’s Wolverine. He spent much of his career in film and television before moving into games, and the GTA 6 credit lands during an unusually busy stretch of work across several big franchises.
| Project | Role |
|---|---|
| Marvel’s Wolverine | Sabretooth (lead) |
| Grand Theft Auto 6 | Ellis (supporting) |
| Stranger Things: Tales from ’85 | Jim Hopper |
| Borderlands 4 | Grunt |
| Contra | Varanis (lead) |
What the “Ellis” name might mean
The name alone has fueled fan theories. Some have linked it to Jamie Ellis from GTA 5, a LifeInvader user in Los Santos who became a minor fan favorite. There is no evidence the two are connected, and a shared surname is the only thread tying them together.
Others expect Ellis to slot into one of GTA 6’s side stories, random encounters, or stranger missions, which would fit a supporting credit. Until Rockstar shows more, all of this stays in the realm of speculation.
How Ellis fits into the wider GTA 6 cast rumors
Gipson joins a growing list of performers fans believe are attached to the game, almost none of which Rockstar has verified. The protagonists Lucia Caminos and Jason Duval are widely thought to be played by Manni L. Perez and Dylan Rourke, while Oscar Jaenada is rumored for Raul Batista.
Given the scale of the game, more resume sightings like this are likely to surface over the coming months. Rockstar has a long history of slipping cameos into the series, so a stack of established actors quietly appearing in credits would be in character.
GTA 6 and Marvel’s Wolverine release dates
Marvel’s Wolverine arrives September 15 as a PS5 exclusive. Grand Theft Auto 6 follows on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Pre-orders for GTA 6 are set to begin June 25, and a new trailer along with the game’s price are expected around that point.
For now, the Ellis credit is a small but credible glimpse into GTA 6’s cast. If the resume listing holds up, Gipson becomes one more confirmed-on-paper name in a project Rockstar is still keeping almost entirely hidden.
