TL;DR

A Florida man known as the "Florida Joker" has accused Grand Theft Auto 6 of using his likeness in a promotional trailer. Lawrence Sullivan, who gained internet fame for his Joker-inspired face tattoos, claims that a character in the trailer closely resembles him. He demanded $1-2 million in compensation. However, legal experts suggest that he may not have a strong case, citing a previous lawsuit by Lindsay Lohan against Rockstar Games that was dismissed by the court.
