As Annie Lennox once asked, “Who’s that girl?” <\/p>

After being leaked ahead of the official release and Rockstar not wanting to be a step behind, we finally got to see the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer<\/a> \u2013 and it\u2019s raised as many questions as it has answered, such as who is Lucia in GTA 6<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Despite being chock-full of classic rockstar antics in Vice City and the state of Leonida<\/a>, the trailer is fairly light on the plot and characters \u2013 but there\u2019s enough out there to start to piece together a picture of one of the two protagonists.<\/p>\n

What little voice acting there is, it\u2019s of the usual Rockstar calibre, which may go some way to explaining why some fans are worried about the GTA 6 price<\/a> \u2013 as the game is no doubt going to be one of the most expensive ever to develop.<\/p>\n

While you wait for more information to come to light, you can whittle away the hours by living in the world of GTA RP<\/a>, or cause mayhem in Los Santos with GTA 5 cheats<\/a> and GTA 5 mods<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Who is Lucia in GTA 6?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Lucia is one of two playable protagonists in GTA 6<\/b>.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s the first female protagonist since the first Grand Theft Auto<\/a> in the 2D era, which featured multiple female characters to choose from.<\/p>\n

Lucia is the second Latin-American protagonist in the GTA series, following on from GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony\u2019s Luis Fernando Lopez, who was Dominican-American.<\/p>\n

Not much is known about her at this point, but we do know that she is incarcerated \u2013 presumably at the beginning of GTA 6 \u2013 for reasons currently unclear.<\/p>\n

In the trailer, Lucia puts this down to \u201cbad luck, I guess\u201d when speaking to who we assume to be her parole officer.<\/p>\n

As spotted by IGN<\/a>, Lucia in the key art for GTA 6 is wearing an ankle tag, meaning that she is most likely on parole, which will perhaps keep her confined to a limited location in the game.<\/p>\n

These limitations are often placed in GTA games to slowly introduce the player to the world. In GTA: Vice City, the bridges were closed due to a hurricane, for example.<\/p>\n

At some point in her story, she meets and becomes romantically involved with the other protagonist who, according to leaks, is called Jason, but his name isn\u2019t confirmed in the trailer.<\/p>\n

The relationship shared between the two is very reminiscent of Bonnie and Clyde.<\/p>\n

Whatever happens in the story and the situation Lucia finds herself in, she sees only one way out of it.<\/p>\n

During the trailer, she says, \u201cThe only way we\u2019re gonna get through this is by sticking together. Being a team. Trust?\u201d to the other protagonist, who only responds with, \u201cTrust.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whether this trust will be shattered in a similar way to how players could choose to deal with Trevor in GTA V remains to be seen, but it could prove an interesting plot point if you had to choose between one or the other towards the end of the game.<\/p>

Who is the actor for Lucia in GTA 6?<\/b><\/h2>\n

At the moment, we do not know who is portraying Lucia in GTA 6<\/b> \u2013 but that hasn\u2019t stopped the rumour mill.<\/p>\n

Redditor u\/RayStrifex on the GTA subreddit theorised that, based on what we learned in the leaks, the protagonists may be based on Ryan Gosling<\/a> and Eva Mendes<\/a>\u2018s characters in the 2012 film The Place Beyond the Pines<\/a> (which featured the late Ray Liotta<\/a>, who voiced Tommy Vercetti in Vice City), leading to speculation that Mendes could be the actor \u2013 but it\u2019s likely this isn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n

I recently saw the place beyond the pines and I realized the resemblance of our future characters to the protagonists of the film<\/a> byu\/RayStrifex<\/a> inGTA<\/a><\/blockquote>
