Notas del jugador

Solomon Richards es un productor de cine de Vinewood y propietario de Richards Majestic Productions, compañía que hereda de su padre, David Richards, en 1978. Empieza como productor asociado en las películas de su padre antes de realizar producciones propias de éxito comercial. Para 2013, varios fracasos recientes han dejado al estudio en problemas económicos. Solomon pretende recuperar su prestigio y retirarse después de terminar una última película, Meltdown.

Devin Weston presenta a Solomon ante Michael De Santa en Richards Majestic Productions. Michael, admirador de la obra del productor, acepta ayudarle a terminar Meltdown. Solomon le explica que Rocco Pelosi ha llevado al actor Milton McIlroy y al director Anton Beaudelaire a su empresa de representación, y ahora exige dinero para devolverlos. Michael se enfrenta a Rocco y obliga a Milton y Anton a regresar al rodaje.

Más adelante, Rocco y Gianni acorralan a Solomon en el estudio y lo golpean mientras le exigen el pago. Michael los descubre, los expulsa del recinto y mata a los dos. Solomon termina Meltdown, pero Devin planea cerrar el estudio para cobrar el seguro y urbanizar los terrenos. Devin entrega la copia analógica de la película a Molly Schultz, que huye hacia Los Santos International Airport. Michael recupera la copia después de que Molly muere en un motor de avión, sin saber que Solomon ya ha hecho copias digitales.

Solomon asiste al estreno de Meltdown con Michael, aunque Michael se marcha para proteger a su familia del ataque de Merryweather enviado por Devin. La película recibe críticas dispares, pero atrae a mucho público y se convierte en el mayor éxito de taquilla de Solomon. Tras el robo al Union Depository, Solomon llama a Michael para preguntarle si conoce a alguien que pueda financiar otra película. Michael lo invita a cenar para hablar del asunto.

Curiosidades

◆Richards appears to be based on Gene Hackman's character Harry Zimm from the 1995 movie Get Shorty; both have a dusty office filled with movie memorabilia, produce mostly science-fiction and horror B-movies, and become involved with criminals.
◆Michael De Santa can call Solomon after the completion of several missions. Solomon starts every phone call with a quote from one of his movies, Michael will then name the movie, and Solomon will ask how Michael is doing or tell him how the production of a movie is doing.
◆If called after Minor Turbulence, Solomon asks Michael if he has gone to rehab, since he just disappeared from the city, Michael replies that he needed to leave Los Santos for a while. Solomon thanks Michael for making Anton and Milton cooperate with the movie, saying that both of them have been working without complaining, and also says that Michael's help is essential to finish the movie, which leaves Michael very happy. Michael finishes the call saying that he will try to visit the studio as soon as possible.
◆If called after Monkey Business, he will use a phrase from the movie High School!, he also mentions that he is in Liberty City receiving a lifetime award.
◆If called after Meltdown, he will use a phrase from the movie Meltdown, Michael will not recognise the quote, but also mention that working for Solomon was the best thing that ever happened in his life.
◆If called after The Third Way, he will use a phrase from the movie Arthur Penny's Sanitorium. He will also ask Michael if he knows anyone who can fund their next movie, because the robbery at the Union Depository messed with their economy. Michael says that he "knows the perfect guy" and invites Solomon for dinner so they can talk more about it.
◆Sometimes when switching to Michael, he might be a block away from his house arguing with a restaurant bouncer and saying: "I don't know him, I work with him!" or coming out saying: "Great lunch, amigo!". This is a possible reference to Solomon.
◆His Los Santos Summer Special picture shows him wearing a wedding ring.
