N3on Livestreams Movie Red Carpet After IRL Cosplaying As GTA 6 Streamer
Rangesh “N3on” Mutama is having one of the busiest few weeks of his life, with multiple events coinciding to arguably give him the most publicity of his career to date. First, the GTA 6 Netflix extended look showed a streamer who looks just like N3on, which led to the creator recreating the look in an IRL stream. He has now also reportedly become the first creator to livestream a movie’s red carpet premiere.
N3on has long been regarded as a controversial streamer due to the type of content he creates; this has led to him butting heads with Twitch and moving to Kick. However, it looks like the streamer has become a major part of the culture, as GTA 6 apparently has an NPC that looks just like him. N3on took advantage of this opportunity, recreating the viral scene involving the game’s character in a stream. Fans were even more surprised when Hollywood star Mark Wahlberg invited N3on to his new movie’s premiere, allowing the streamer to livestream the event.
N3on recreates GTA 6 streamer that’s allegedly modeled after him
Gamers worldwide were waiting impatiently for GTA 6’s Netflix extended look to go live, and several streamers even live-reacted to the video. However, what surprised fans the most may have been that an IRL streamer is apparently in the game. Eagle-eyed fans noticed quickly that when a particular clip showed off a streamer doing outrageous things in the extended look, he looked similar to N3on in terms of appearance and mannerisms.
While Rockstar hasn’t confirmed this, and we may not find out for sure until the game’s release in November, N3on wasted no time in recreating the GTA 6 character’s action in an IRL stream.
N3on cosplayed as the GTA 6 streamer with Camilla Araujo, starting off with him in the trunk as Camilla is driving the car. This parallels Lucia and the GTA 6 NPC, and N3on then climbs out of the trunk, interacting with Camilla. This is also similar to how Lucia and the GTA 6 NPC have a brief conversation. This isn’t all, as N3on also recreated some other GTA 6 moments, including riding a yacht, jet skiing, using a helicopter for traveling. Clips of the extensive stream went viral, with some even getting several thousand views on social media.
N3on livestreams Mark Wahlberg movie, By Any Means, red carpet event
Kick streamer N3on may not be the first content creator to appear at a movie’s red carpet, as Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter hosted the premiere of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. However, N3on has reportedly become the first streamer to livestream a premiere and broadcast the event to viewers. Mark Wahlberg apparently invited N3on to the premiere, permitting him to stream the event. The Hollywood star has already collaborated with N3on in a livestream, and the duo seems to have hit it off.
The two traveled to the By Any Means event together, with N3on getting some time with Mark’s sons as well. This made for several memorable moments, chief among them being when Mark talked about wanting to spend more time with his sons. Wahlberg also revealed that he and N3on are working on a “Hard- R” comedy movie. Mark’s sons joked with N3on, questioning him about viewbotting; N3on refuted the allegations by showing how active his chat was.
The By Any Means red carpet premiere was also lively, with several people recognizing N3on as the streamer who recreated GTA 6. The streamer met an executive producer of the movie, who was seemingly a fan of the streamer. He also met Paramount’s chairman, and the duo talked off camera, with N3on claiming the chairman had permitted him to livestream more premieres.
In what was a busy event, N3on also revealed that he had a cameo in By Any Means and also met Colombo crime family mob boss’ son Gregory Scarpa Jr. The YouTuber also sat next to Wahlberg during the premiere, watching the movie with the Hollywood star. After a whirlwind week in the public limelight, it will be interesting to see what the streamer’s fans have in store — it would not be a surprise to see him take advantage of the hype around GTA 6 ahead of its 19 November release.
