A number of characters who appeared in the 1983 film Scarface and the quasi-sequel video game Scarface: The World Is Yours.
Antonio Raimundo "Tony" Montana is the main character in Scarface and the video game Scarface: The World Is Yours, portrayed by Al Pacino in the film and by André Sogliuzzo in the video game. Oliver Stone came up with the name by combining the last name of his then-favorite football player (Joe Montana) and the first name from the main character of the 1932 film version, Tony Camonte, played by Paul Muni.
In the film's ending Tony Montana's mansion was raided by Alex Sosa's (Alejandro Sosa's) gang in retribution for not killing a Bolivian anti-drug journalist with his wife and children, resulting in his death, but in the video game Tony Montana could survive the assault, regain his criminal empire and exact revenge on Sosa. In the game and the movie, Tony carries an M16 rifle with an M203 grenade launcher strapped to the barrel.
Alejandro "Alex" Sosa is a Bolivian drug lord. He was portrayed by Paul Shenar. Sosa is called Alex by Tony Montana and Gaspar Gomez. He serves as Tony's chief nemesis. Sosa is portrayed by Paul Shenar in the film and voiced by Robert Davi in the game. He is based on the Bolivian drug trafficker Roberto Suárez Goméz.
