Philip Höfer is a fictional character on the German soap opera Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten portrayed by actor and singer Jörn Schlönvoigt since December 1, 2004.[1]

Creation[edit]

Introduction[edit]

The character of Philip is introduced together with twin-sister Emily (Anne Menden) to cover the past and dual life of their father Hannes Bachmann (Klaus-Dieter Klebsch). The twins also reinserted a new teen scene, with both characters being only fifteen years old and going to the local school. Jörn Schlönvoigt made the character with his portray about a troubled young boy believable and clicked with the rest of the cast, while the role of Emily would need years to find a great fan base.

Personality[edit]

As a handsome young boy living in comfort, Philip showed his side as a rebel, when he found out the truth about the dual life his father was living, with having three other children and a former wife. This fact builds a long going tension between Philip and his half-brother John (Felix von Jascheroff). Philip can be very stubborn in the beginning, showing that he is the one in charge over his own choices.[2] In the inside, Philip is shown as teenager that is very unsure of himself and having nobody as a role model. With his father needing to earn his trust back, Philip seems alone for sometime. Over the years, the character develops in a much more confident person, with an emotional side which can make him very vulnerable.
