A Los Angeles casting call hints at the forthcoming Rockstar game's story line.

Officially, Rockstar treats the plotline of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas like a state secret. However, its efforts to cast voice actors have revealed clues about the upcoming PlayStation 2 game's story, including the names of several characters.

 

Two weeks ago, veteran casting director David Vaccari, who has worked on films such as The Bone Collector and Finding Forrester, placed a listing on the Los Angeles-based agency Shadowfax under the "Interactive/Home Videos/Video Games" category. The project advertised is listed as "ROCKSTAR - GRAND THEFT AUTO" and offers reading scripts for three roles--"Maccer," "Mad Dogg," and "Maria."

 

On the top of the role's reading script, Maccer is described as a "Manchester-born white male, 22." The dialogue also gives a taste of Maccer's personality, since it is taken from the 1999 film Human Traffic, which followed a group of young British clubbers on a drug-fueled night of partying. Coincidentally, Moff, the character who uttered the lines in the film, was played by Danny Dyer, the actor who voiced Kent Paul in Vice City.

 

The next character, Mad Dogg, is described as "Black American Male, 23." Judging by the script, Mad Dogg will not be the paradigm of social responsiblity. His lines are those of O-Dog, the homicidal teenager played by Larenz Tate in the 1993 classic Menace II Society, and are drenched in hardcore profanity and mid-'90s gangsta slang.

 

Last comes Maria, referred to in the script as a "young Italian female." The script is taken from the 1988 film Colors, which focused on two Los Angeles police officers' efforts to stem the rising tide of gang warfare. The lines were borrowed from Maria Conchita Alonso's Louisa Gomez, the Hispanic love interest of Senn Penn's rookie LAPD officer in the film.

 

Although Rockstar did not respond to inquires about the characters, several other details about GTA: San Andreas' plot can be inferred from the scripts. First, given the vintage of the films and the modern vernacular, the game will take place in semi-contemporary times, as opposed to the 1970s-set game some had speculated. Second, the film will feature a West-Coast gangsta prominently, perhaps even as the lead.
