Red Dead Redemption 2 actor Roger Clark has revealed that Rockstar's NDAs are stricter than Marvel's. Rockstar Games is known for its strict secrecy rules to minimize leaks about its projects. However, the Red Dead Redemption 2 actor believes these rules are even stricter than people think.
When it comes to big-budget AAA projects like Rockstar’s, fans are always eager to uncover any details ahead of time, especially since these kinds of productions usually take several years to complete. Rockstar Games is known for being extremely secretive, often requiring actors and developers to sign strict non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) that remain in effect even long after a project is finished. These agreements usually prevent anyone involved from talking about their roles or even hinting at their participation until Rockstar makes an official announcement. This level of control helps Rockstar shape its marketing strategy and keep the excitement and mystery alive around its highly anticipated games.
Red Dead Redemption 2's Collector's Edition is Going For a Ridiculous Price
Six years after its release, a gamer online discovers Red Dead Redemption 2's Collector's Edition selling for a ridiculous price.
Roger Clark, the actor who played Arthur Morgan in Red Dead Redemption 2, shared how strict Rockstar Games' secrecy rules really are, saying they’re even tougher than Marvel’s well-known non-disclosure agreements. In a recent YouTube Shorts video by user @BossMorgan, Clark recalled a conversation with his co-star Benjamin Byron Davis, who played Dutch van der Linde. Davis compared Rockstar’s NDAs to the ones given to his friend Chris Pratt by Marvel for Guardians of the Galaxy and noted that Rockstar’s were significantly stricter. This shows just how far the studio goes to prevent leaks and protect its projects.
Red Dead Redemption 2 Actor Reveals Rockstar's NDAs Are Stricter Than Marvel's
Despite Rockstar’s strict secrecy policies, the studio hasn’t been able to stop everything. Last year, the studio had to release the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer earlier than planned after leaks started spreading online. The trailer was originally meant to celebrate Rockstar’s 25th anniversary, but to control the damage, they released it early on their YouTube channel. Despite this hiccup, the trailer sparked a lot of excitement among fans.
Roger Clark also shared his excitement for the upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6, which is set to launch in 2025 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Although there is little known yet, the game is expected to feature a massive open world and a story centered on two protagonists, Jason and Lucia. This marks a first for the series, with a female character as one of the main GTA 6 leads.
Rockstar’s extreme secrecy highlights its dedication to creating suspense and surprising players. With GTA 6 on the way, fans are left speculating about what’s coming for this exciting new entry in the franchise.

America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed. After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him. From the creators of Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America at the dawn of the modern age.
