Gerard "Sully" Sullivan is a major antagonists from british gangster series Top Boy. Sully was at first apart of a criminal friendship with Dushane Hill.
Sully saw himself as the boss and this would often lead him clashing with Dushane, while no boss is really established between the two men, Sully is seen as the lesser leader due to his cruel and unpredictable nature. This dosen't stop Sully on making lone decisions, examples of this is when he departs ways with Dushane for some time and goes into partnership with Mike or perhaps more shockingly when Sully decided to take out former gangland riva inl Jamie Tovell.
Despite at times being shown to do some evil acts, Sully did show a softer side, he took in a young lad known as Jason whoncsme from an abusive home, Sully also defended his niece Pepples from some drug dealers. Sully's softest spot though was his daughter Tash.
Sully's evil antics eventually caught up with him by the very final episode of Top Boy when he was shot in the head by an unknown killer while sat in his car.
Sully was played by british rapper Kano (real name Kane Robinson).

In season 1 Sully is seen along with friend Dushane rising up the gangland underworld, the pair would take o er Summerhouse but not without rival Kamale Lewis throwing spanners in the works. Sully's no nonsense attitude was first seen when he stabbed Kamale in the leg to the shock of Dushane. Sully along with Dushane then begins to sell for notorious gangster Bobby Raikes however Sully would cause many problems for Bobby who eventually orders Dushane to kill him, Sully has no idea of this but after Sully kills Leon, Dushane has no choice but to kill Bobby. Sully is shocked to learn this.
In season 2, Sully is now working alongside Mike but things got out of hand when Sully decided to kidnap his cousin Jermaine Newton for a sum of cash but Jermaine's brother and Sully's other cousin Rafe Newton who is ruthless and dangerous discovers Sully is behind it however Dushane makes a deal with Rafe saving Sully for the second season in a row however Sully sees his new friend, Mike brutally shot down by Rafe.
