Revision as of 05:25, 22 February 2016

"My mother… she's very young for her age. I think Phil makes her feel younger. At any rate, she's crazy about him."
―Bella Swan on Renée Dwyer and Phil.[src]

Phil Dwyer is Renée Dwyer's second husband and Bella Swan's stepfather, as well as the stepfather-in-law of Edward Cullen and the step-grandfather of Renesmee Cullen.

He is portrayed by Matt Bushell in the first movie adaptation and later by Ty Olsson.

Biography

History

Phil married Renée the same month Bella turned 17. They had planned to get married in Mexico, but that did not happen. Though Bella didn't like the fact that her mother remarried with someone younger than her, she found Phil quite decent and accepted him, and Phil adapted to Bella. However, because he was a minor league baseball player, he spent a majority of his time away from his new family. Renée stayed home with Bella, but she always missed him. Seeing how lonely her mom felt, Bella decided to move back to Forks and live with her biological father, Charlie, so Renée and Phil could travel together.

Twilight

Phil in Twilight.

"Guys, c'mon. I love you both. We got a plane to catch."
―Phil's only line in the movies.[src]

In Twilight, Bella notes that Phil gave her a CD of his favorite band when she left, and she listens to it while in Forks. Eventually, Phil is able to get a contract signed with the Suns, a minor league baseball team located in Jacksonville, Florida, and he and Renée move there together.

In the Twilight film, Phil is only seen at the beginning. He packs up the car in Phoenix to bring Bella to the airport, urging them to hurry, though his face isn't shown clearly.

When Bella is taken to the hospital, Renée texts Phil to reassure him and tells him to stay in Florida.

Eclipse
