Mark Fostenburg

Background

Mark Fostenburg is an American film star, director and producer who lives on Picture Perfect Drive in the Vinewood Hills. He is famous for playing lone-wolf police officers in action films, most notably the Die Already series. His reputation is shadowed by a scandal in which a teenage girl was found dead in his pizza oven, a case settled out of court, and by an affair with actress Miranda Cowan that ended his marriage. He is voiced by Tim Barker.

Events of Grand Theft Auto V

Fostenburg appears in the Strangers and Freaks mission Vinewood Souvenirs - Mark, given by Nigel and Mrs. Thornhill. Trevor Philips must take one of his custom golf clubs, which Fostenburg constantly boasts were made in Japan. He is playing at the Los Santos Golf Club with three armed bodyguards, who open fire if Trevor gets too close or draws a weapon, while Mark tries to run.

The club can be taken without killing him, but the gold medal requires a headshot kill on Mark and the deaths of all three guards. If he survives, he posts an angry Bleet about being robbed.

Trivia

• In The Chop Shop, Jamal Amir can mention that a car the player steals once belonged to Fostenburg before he died at the golf club, which makes his death canon.
• He seems to be modeled on Bruce Willis, while his name echoes Mark Zuckerberg.
• He has a star on the Vinewood Walk of Fame.
