The Expanded and Enhanced Edition of GTA 5 is still scheduled to arrive in March, though little has been announced about it. Fans are hungry for any proof of the update's updates and tweaks, and now a new post from protagonist Franklin actor Shawn Fonteno has fans wondering if he's seen the future.
Franklin recently returned to Grand Theft Auto Online as part of The Contract DLC. Set several years after the events of GTA 5, The Contract demonstrates how far Franklin has come from his early days to now leading an agency that helps the rich and famous with their problems.

Franklin, in particular, has aged a bit in the GTA Online DLC. Fans have taken an interest in this, as evidenced by a new post from the Franklin actor. Actor Shawn Fonteno shared a
DLC is on the way, possibly centering on Franklin and Lamar's background, or that this is the model that will be used in the GTA Expanded and Enhanced version. Unfortunately, Fonteno's only comment is that it's "almost finished", which only adds to the intrigue and excitement among fans.
There's also a small chance that this model has something to do with Grand Theft Auto 6. That release is still on the way, however Rockstar Games hasn't specifically stated it's in the works. While it might seem strange for Rockstar to break the ice by allowing set assets to be shared in this way.
It can also act as viral marketing to help build interest and excitement ahead of an official announcement. This seems like the least likely possibility, unless GTA 6 is directly tied to the floor or serves as a sort of prologue.
