Spanish star Oscar Jaenada playing a main role in GTA 6? Netizen claims they found the answer
Rockstar Games may be keeping quiet about the cast of Grand Theft Auto VI, but fans think they've found a major clue. GTA 6's second trailer broke records with over 475 million views in just 24 hours across all platforms. Now, one fan theory is picking up real traction that Spanish star Oscar Jaenada is the actor behind Raul Bautista. The rumour started gaining steam when Jaenada posted an Instagram story wearing a shirt featuring Raul's face. That alone was enough to get the internet talking, but it was X (formerly Twitter) user @GameRoll_, known for covering all things Rockstar, who amplified the buzz.

It's not far-fetched. The resemblance between Jaenada and Raul is uncanny. When you line them up side by side, it's hard not to think they could be the same person. 'Pretty hard to argue with that one as if he posted that,' one user commented. 'Not confirmed but they're basically identical, so I'd say it's pretty likely,' another chimed in. Considering Jaenada's history with tough, gritty characters, think Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Rambo: Last Blood, and The Losers, he definitely has the range to bring Raul to life. Raul Bautista's official Rockstar character bio reads, 'Experience counts. Confidence, charm and cunning – Raul's a seasoned bank robber always on the hunt for talent ready to take the risks that bring the biggest rewards. A professional adapts. Raul's recklessness raises the stakes with every score. Sooner or later, his crew will have to double down or pull their chips from the table.'

This marks Johnny Depp's significant return to Hollywood following his widely publicized legal battles with ex-wife . The film, directed by "500 Days of Summer" and "The Amazing Spider-Man" filmmaker Marc Webb, reunites Depp with for their fourth onscreen collaboration, having previously shared the screen in "Blow," "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides," and "Murder on the Orient Express." Rising star Madelyn Cline joins the cast, alongside Manu Ríos, Arón Piper, Juan Diego Botto, and Anika Boyle. Set aboard a private yacht, "Day Drinker" follows a bartender (Cline) who crosses paths with a mysterious guest (Depp). Their encounter spirals into a tangled web involving a criminal figure played by Cruz, revealing unexpected connections between the trio. Filming is underway in Spain, with a production team stacked with Hollywood heavyweights. The project is being produced by Thunder Road's Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee, best known for their work on the "John Wick" franchise, alongside Adam Kolbrenner ("The Tomorrow War," "Free Guy," "Prisoners") and writer-producer Zach Dean, whose latest film "The Gorge" was recently released on Apple TV+. 'This is gonna be fun,' Webb said in a statement, per Variety. 'I'm excited to be starting production with Johnny, Madelyn, Penelope, and this incredible cast. We're in a beautiful location with a fantastic crew and a thrilling, ferocious story to tell.' Behind the camera, the creative team includes director of photography Javier Aguirresarobe (ASC, AEC), production designer Jan Roelfs, editor Doc Crotzer (ACE), and costume designer Penny Rose. Casting was led by Hannah Ashby Ward and Alejandro Gil. "Day Drinker" is executive produced by 30WEST, which is co-presenting the film with Lionsgate. It's the second project to stem from the collaboration between the two companies, following the upcoming "Power Ballad" starring and . With a high-profile cast, gripping storyline, and Depp back in a lead role, "Day Drinker" is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about thrillers on the horizon. After weeks of testimony and years of legal battles, Johnny Depp's high-profile defamation case against ex-wife Amber Heard concluded with a decisive verdict in his favor. A seven-person jury unanimously ruled that Heard defamed Depp in a 2018 op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post, awarding the actor $10 million in compensatory damages and an additional $5 million in punitive damages. The trial marked a dramatic chapter in a saga that began more than a decade ago when Depp and Heard first met. Their relationship eventually led to marriage, and then spiraled into a toxic, highly scrutinized breakup. The couple divorced in 2016, but legal disputes continued long after their split, culminating in the defamation case that became a media spectacle. At the center of the dispute was Heard's 2018 op-ed, in which she described herself as a survivor of domestic violence. Although Depp was not named in the essay, the actor claimed it clearly referenced him and irreparably damaged his career. Depp sued for $50 million, asserting that Heard's allegations were false and malicious. The jury agreed, finding that Heard not only failed to prove her abuse claims but also acted with actual malice in publishing the essay. According to the verdict, Heard 'could not substantiate her allegations against Depp' and 'knew her claims of abuse were false when she published her 2018 essay.' Heard, for her part, countersued Depp for $100 million, focusing on three 2020 statements made by Depp's former attorney Adam Waldman to the Daily Mail, in which he labeled her abuse allegations as a 'hoax.' The jury determined that Depp, through Waldman, defamed Heard on one count and awarded her $2 million in compensatory damages, but no punitive damages.

Sharon Osbourne confesses 'biggest mistake' she ever made with husband Ozzy
Sharon Osbourne once shut down an opportunity for her husband, Ozzy, and admits she regrets her decision. Ozzy, 76, was offered an audition for "Pirates of the Caribbean," and Sharon, 72, argued it wasn't a good role for her husband. "Do you want to know the biggest mistake I ever made with Ozzy?" Sharon asked host Billy Corgan on his "The Magnificent Others" podcast. "He got offered to go and read for 'Pirates of the Caribbean'… I've never said this to anyone, and I said no." "Now wouldn't he have been perfect?" Sharon added. The podcast host replied, "He would have been perfect! Maybe it's not too late, but God bless." "Because when Johnny [Depp] wanted Keith [Richards] to be a pirate, you remember?" Sharon said, as she referred to the Rolling Stones' lead guitarist. Richards was featured in "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" and "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" as Captain Teague. Ozzy has made other appearances on the silver screen, as he took on roles in "Austin Powers in Goldmember," "Little Nicky" and more. Sharon's candid confession comes after the rocker recently admitted he was having difficulty walking due to his ongoing health issues. "I go on about the way I can't walk, and I can't do this… but you know what I was thinking over the holidays? For all my complaining, I'm still alive," he said on the Jan. 29 episode of his Sirius XM show, "Ozzy Speaks." Ozzy continued, "I may be moaning about how I can't walk, but I look down the road and there's people that didn't do half as much as me, and they didn't make it." "There's so many friends and acquaintances that have gone." He added that, "I have to balance myself" when he gets out of bed. "I'm not dead, still actively doing things." Ozzy is due to perform one final show with Black Sabbath's original lineup in July in Birmingham, England. "It's my time to go back to the beginning, time for me to give back to the place where I was born," Ozzy previously said in a statement. "How blessed am I to do it with the help of people whom I love. Birmingham is the true home of metal. Birmingham forever." The Black Sabbath lead vocalist was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2003. In 2023, Osbourne announced he was retiring from touring, explaining he was no longer "physically capable" of traveling as much as his tour schedule demanded.
