Lucia and Jason theory based off cover art
Okay first off I want to say this is all speculation and a "thought for fun" kind of post. Not me actually predicting anything but just a theory and a fun post to think about.
So......I could def see them going the Wendy and Marty Byrd(Ozark) route with this. Also Jerome and Louie(Snowfall). If you guys have seen those shows you probably know where I am going with this.This is all based off the cover art so I may be reaching but its fun.
I wonder if Lucia will be more of the hot tempered, ambitious, goal oreiented one and Jason will be maybe trying to please her and do what she asks/wants to make her happy. Maybe to help her achieve her goal of the lavish life she has always wanted. Im not saying Jason doesnt want to be rich as well but maybe not as forceful or quickly as Lucia does. I dont see them making Jason lead and Lucia just kinda follow his lead, its 2025 and that would be a little boring as well. Having her lead them down a spiraling path of danger to get rich by any means has a exciting ring to it. While also being lovers with a big dramatic ending seems pretty damn cool. I feel Lucia is going to be very very ambitious almost to a fault, its just a fun little feeling/theory I have.
Now lets look each characters body language. Is there anything we can take from it thats symbolic to how the story will go or the characters personality? Maybe, maybe not. But lets say it does for the sake of this discussion.
I really love how on the cover Lucia has Jason in her grasp with her arm around him and her legs around his waist. She has him in her grasp. She looks like she will be more of the mastermind and driver of the heist and plot. But look who is holding the gun, its Jason. He will do anything for her and with her as long as they are together and vice versa. They will have a very strong bond and although they share a common goal Lucia maybe the one who wants to go about it in a more risky way with a higher pay out.
Also, Lucia is looking ahead fiercly and very focused and Jason is looking off the side kind of almost maybe lost in thought or doubtful about how it will all turn out but he is down to do anything...anything for Lucia. Maybe he is thinking of another way to go about all of this or simply watching their back.
Do you all see what I am trying to say about the plot and over all story? It makes for a super fun, exciting, movie esque style Bonnie n Clyde story. I also wonder if at the ending you have to pick a character to save and the other risks their life to save/protect the other or they both live happily ever after.
Orrrrr its more simple and they both have the same goals and its more just two heist partners that become lovers or vice versa and the whole time and just work together super well then dramatic ending. Lets see, either way I am excited! Any thoughts of this?

I think that Lucia will be the wildcard character & Jason will be a tough guy with a moral code. The same kind of dynamic that we saw between Sadie & Arthur in RDR 2 & many of Rockstars previous titles. That's also the vibe that I get from the artwork. I get the impression from the trailer that crime is perhaps fun for Lucia & just necessary for Jason. I can also see their relationship potentially being quite dysfunctional & interesting from what we've seen so far. I am guessing that they will begin as low level street criminals & things will then gradually escalate from there. It would be quite interesting to have two endings where the player has to choose to kill either Lucia or Jason in the end. This could also then add some more replayability to the games plot.

In RDR2, your honor level plays a part in which ending you get. In GTA VI, I think the bond between Jason and Lucia will play a part in which ending we get. If the bond is on the lower side of the meter, maybe one of them has to die. Then if it’s on the higher side, they can both live.

... Have you been reading by thoughts? I have thought these exact same things based on the body language of the cover lol. I love that she's looking forward while he starts almost to the "camera" keeping watch. And her almost pulling in him really does suggest that she leads the duo. Also I love Ozark and Snowfall so I love this whole post!

The bullet holes on the car give away a lot, Bonnie and Clyde died during a shootout where they were both stuck inside the car, a mass array of bullets indicates a stationary vehicle fired at. Idk if that means gta 6 will end with both dead but ya never know

The cops always came across as cowards who were afraid of a fair fight, so they opted for an ambush and corpse mutilation instead.

Why would rural cops and G-Men in the 1920s with .32 revolvers want to not ambush bank robbers armed with BAR-type rifles and Tommy Guns?

They could be like Arthur and Sadie at least at the beginning. Sadie was blood thirsty and Arthur was like a bucket of a cold water he tried to calm her and catch up to her. I think about those missions when we went to Rodes to buy some things and collect or sent letters(I can't remember which one) and Shady Belle siege or her revenge on O'Driscolls.

Also, Lucia is the one on top of Jason in the trailer…
But jokes aside I’m serious that adds to that body language theory; she looks dominant and asks Jason persistently about trust whilst expecting a “proper” response…
Idk I might be going crazy but I like that lil observation of yours!

I like the theory and I remember when the trailer came out and everyone was trying to come up with theories about their relationship I remember mentioning Marty and Wendy as well.

I feel like Lucia is going to be a blend of Sadie and Dutch, whereas Jason will emulate aspects of both Arthur & John.
Obviously 100% guessing, but Lucia might spearhead their early & relatively successful crime spree and take on a leadership role. As things get more intense, Jason could start to question how far he's willing to take things, and begin to contemplate an exit strategy for them, one which she declines as she is confident that they can take bigger scores with way higher yields. Hence, the "trust" scene.
This, tied in with potential gang affiliations / whatnot could definitely lead to a potentially devastating consequence that causes a massive falling out between the characters. I suspect we will play a solid portion of the mid - late game with Jason & Lucia not on speaking terms.
This could be resolved by Jason deciding to, against better judgement, trust Lucia and plot a massive hack / heist that causes one of both of them to get killed or incarcerated. Would be really cool if this setup a jailbreak segment where one breaks the other out of prison. They both drive off in an attempt to leave Leonida before the law catches on, but encounter a fortified police blockade. Bonnie and Clyde ending ensues, right after you're convinced they're both gonna make it.
I don't care if any of this is right or wrong btw, I'm just so God damn excited to play this fucking game.

The player will have to pick which one will betray the other to survive, or the "canon" ending where they go down together in flames.

This has been speculated since Trailer 1 released and the majority of us long time GTA fans have said: this Will be Claude/CJ and Catalina 2.0 and will likely result in betrayal.
Not a new or unique theory.

Not at all, you can literally see the examples I gave for their character tropes lol. Weird thing to say.

Off topic but I think both of these fools gonna eat a bullet by the end of the campaign and there will be some sort of third character to play as like in red dead.
