Trevor Philips is arguably the most memorable protagonist in Grand Theft Auto V. While Michael De Santa and Franklin Clinton are integral to the story, Trevor’s unhinged and dangerous personality quickly made him a fan favorite.
In the game’s canonical ending, all three protagonists survive, leaving the door open for future appearances. With Trevor still alive in the GTA universe, speculation has turned to whether he might feature in the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI.
Steven Ogg, the actor who brought the character to life, has proposed a surprising fate for Trevor in the next installment. In an interview with Screen Rant, Ogg suggested killing the character off early. “It would be fun if Trevor appeared in it just to be killed at the beginning,” he said. “Pass the torch, stomp Trevor’s head in, and sort of put an end to that and allow a new generation to take over.”
The proposal has sparked a debate among fans on Reddit, with opinions sharply divided. Some players oppose the idea, with one user stating, “We don’t need another pointless main character death.” Others argued for a clean slate, with one commenter preferring that GTA VI “doesn’t even reference any of the previous games” so it can be its “own distinct thing.”
However, many embraced Ogg’s suggestion, viewing a violent end as fitting for the character. One fan proposed a specific scenario, writing it “would be brutal but kinda badass if it was the Lost MC that kills him in a similar fashion to Johnny.”
Regardless of his ultimate fate, Trevor’s status as one of the most iconic characters in the franchise’s history is secure. How Rockstar Games might handle his legacy in any future appearances remains a key point of interest for the community.
