Philip "Phil" Wenneck is best friends with Doug Billings, Stuart Price, and Alan Garner, as well as the main protagonist of The Hangover, the deuteragonist of The Hangover Part II, and the main protagonist-turned-tritagonist of The Hangover Part III . Because of his narcissistic playboy mindframe, he often complains about his married life, despite the fact that he was the only one married at the beginning of the series, though he is happily married to Stephanie Wenneck and they have two children; Eli and an infant daughter, who he loves, even though he doesn't seem to have a great appreciation for children. He is portrayed by Bradley Cooper in all three films.
Personality/Life
Phil has a wife, Stephanie and two kids, Eli and an unnamed daughter. Occasionally, Phil is selfish and seemingly hates his life. Phil loves bachelor parties and was angry when Stu didn't want one. Instead, they had a bachelor brunch, upsetting Phil. Selfish and jerky at times, he is charismatic and cares about his friends. Phil is sometimes a jerk to Stu, especially about Stu saying he is a real doctor. Stu said that Phil drives great drunk. Phil always wakes up on the ground after their drunken escapades. Phil usually wears shades during their quests. Phil is always the joker and laughs at the worst things that happen to his friend when they wake up. Phil is also a school teacher and even insults his students; he may have even faked a field trip to get money for the trip to Vegas. Phil was the only one person who extremely hated Melissa, because she was mean and controlling (she would boss Stu around on a regular basis.) He thought Stu proposing to her was a mistake. In the end, Phil was proud of Stu when he finally stood up to Melissa and dumped her.
Appearances
The Hangover Part II
In flashback, in year of 1985, he is 11 years old with, Stu, Alan, and Doug.
Relationships
Doug Billings
Doug is Phil's best friend, whom he has known since childhood. Although Doug is sometimes annoyed by Phil's rebellious behaviour (such as standing on and climbing into the car of Alan's father, and drunk driving), they hang out regularly along with Stu.
Stuart Price
Phil and Stu have known each other since childhood and are very close friends. Phil has a tendency to embarass Stu whenever he tries to pass himself off as a doctor (when he is just a dentist) and steals from him, but does genuinely care about Stu. He is proud of him for breaking up with Melissa and is also happy that he has found real happiness with Lauren.
Alan Garner
Phil had met Alan several times before the bachelor party for Doug in Las Vegas, though he initially does not remember Alan until he reminds Phil of their previous meetings, and Phil immediately changes his tone and is friendlier to Alan. Phil takes a liking to Alan from then on and is amused by his antics, although he is sometimes irritated and frustrated by Alan's stupidity. They become better friends over the course of the sequels, and is ultimately a groomsmen in Alan's wedding. He is easily the most tolerant of Alan, and is Alan's favorite.
