Milton McIlroy is a minor character in Grand Theft Auto V.
History[]
Background[]
McIlroy is a Vinewood action star who is attempting to transition into more serious roles, but suffers from what Solomon Richards refers to as "zero talent". His reputation has suffered following recent failures as a serious actor and has led him to heavily reduce his actor's fees, which is why Richards hires him to star in his most recent production, Meltdown. Milton's role as a former action star who has trouble becoming a reputable dramatic actor might make him a reference to actor Mark Wahlberg.
Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]
During shooting of the movie, McIlroy gets into a dispute with Richards and storms off the set, promptly firing his manager and hiring corrupt former gangster Rocco Pelosi to replace him. Pelosi threatens Richards and also convinces director Anton Beaudelaire to halt production in order to raise Milton's salary and also obtain a blackmail payoff from Richards.
Unwilling to pay off Pelosi, Richards asks Michael De Santa to intimidate Pelosi and get both McIlroy and Beaudelaire back on set. Michael beats up Pelosi and takes both Milton and Anton on a hectic helicopter ride, persuading them to get back to work. After bringing them back to the studio, Michael forces Milton to apologize to Richards. McIlroy posts on his Bleeter account about this.

He is seen again when Franklin Clinton infiltrates the Deep Inside film set to steal a car. Milton and an understudy for Theodore Bickford are filming a scene in front of a green screen with Anton directing.
Ultimately, Milton finishes the film, and he is seen one final time during the premiere, where he snubs Lazlow Jones after Lazlow begins to cry on his shoulder while thinking about a scene from one of Milton's movies where he played a polar bear who is forced to eat its baby.
McIlroy has his own star on the Vinewood Walk of Fame.
