'''Trevor Philips''' is a character and one of the three [[Player character|playable]] protagonists, alongside Michael de Santa and Franklin Clinton, of ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'', the seventh main title in the [[Grand Theft Auto|''Grand Theft Auto'' series]] developed by [[Rockstar North]] and published by [[Rockstar Games]]. He also appears in the game's multiplayer component, ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]''. A career criminal and former bank robber, Trevor leads his own organisation, Trevor Philips Enterprises, and comes into conflict with various rival gangs and criminal syndicates as he attempts to secure control of the drugs and weapons trade in the fictional Blaine County, San Andreas. He is portrayed by [[Canadian]] actor [[Steven Ogg]], who provided the [[voice acting|voice]] and [[motion capture]] for the character.

Rockstar based Trevor's appearance on Ogg's physical appearance, while his personality was inspired by the British criminal [[Charles Bronson (prisoner)|Charles Bronson]]. ''Grand Theft Auto V'' co-writer [[Dan Houser]] described Trevor as purely driven by desire and resentment. To make players care for the character, the designers gave the character more emotions. Trevor is shown to care about people very close to him, despite his antisocial behavior and psychotic derangement.

The general attention given to Trevor by critics was mostly very positive, although some reviewers felt that his violent personality and actions negatively affected the game's narrative. His design and personality have drawn comparisons to other influential video game and film characters.  Many reviewers have called Trevor a likeable and believable character, and felt that he is one of the few protagonists in the ''Grand Theft Auto'' series that would willingly execute popular player actions, such as murder and violence.

''Grand Theft Auto V'' co-writer [[Dan Houser]] explained that Trevor "appeared to {{bracket|[[Rockstar Games]]}} pretty much out of nowhere as the embodiment of another side of criminality [...] If Michael was meant to be the idea of some version of criminal control [...] what about the guy who didn't do that?"<ref name="Game Informer Digital Issue 236">{{cite magazine |last=Bertz |first=Matt |title=Go Big Or Go Home |publisher=United States: [[GameStop]] |magazine=[[Game Informer]] |issue=236 |date=December 2012 |pages=72–95}}</ref> He later described Trevor as "the person who's driven purely by desire, resentment, no thought for tomorrow whatsoever, completely [[Id, ego and super-ego#Id|id]] rather than [[Id, ego and super-ego#Ego|ego]]-driven." He stated that Trevor "kills without remorse, like a true psychopath, but very sentimental for the right reasons when it suits him."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://ign.com/articles/2012/11/13/grand-theft-auto-v-meet-the-cast |title=Grand Theft Auto 5: Meet The Cast |last1=Simmons |first1=Alex |last2=Miller |first2=Greg |last3=Lynch |first3=Casey |website=[[IGN]] |date=13 November 2012 |access-date=30 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140219161531/http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/11/13/grand-theft-auto-v-meet-the-cast |archive-date=19 February 2014 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref>

Rockstar drew upon game protagonist archetypes while scripting the characters; Trevor was considered to embody insanity. Houser said the team characterised Michael and Trevor as juxtapositions of each other. He said, "Michael is like the criminal who wants to compartmentalise and be a good guy some of the time and Trevor is the maniac who isn't a hypocrite". He said that having three lead characters would help move the game's plot into more original territory than its predecessors, which traditionally followed a single protagonist rising through the ranks of a criminal underworld.<ref name="Dan Houser Famitsu">{{cite web |url=http://www.polygon.com/2012/11/14/3643990/gta-5-writer-explains-the-decision-to-develop-for-current-gen-consoles |title=GTA 5 writer explains the decision to develop for current gen consoles |work=[[Polygon (website)|Polygon]] |date=14 November 2012 |first=Kevin |last=Gifford |access-date=3 September 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170807193901/https://www.polygon.com/2012/11/14/3643990/gta-5-writer-explains-the-decision-to-develop-for-current-gen-consoles |archive-date=7 August 2017 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref> [[Steven Ogg]] was cast as Trevor.

Ogg felt Trevor's characterisation developed over time. He said, "Nuances and character traits that began to appear{{mdash}}his walk, his manner of speech, his reactions, definitely informed his development throughout the game".<ref name="Ogg Interview"/> Ogg cites [[Tom Hardy]]'s portrayal of English criminal [[Charles Bronson (prisoner)|Charles Bronson]] in the 2008 biopic ''[[Bronson (film)|Bronson]]'' as a strong stylistic influence.<ref name="Ogg Interview"/> He opined that while Trevor embodies the violent, psychopathic ''Grand Theft Auto'' anti-hero archetype, he wanted to evoke player sympathy to Trevor's story.

Trevor was born in Canada, just north of the border of the United States. He grew up with a physically abusive father and an emotionally abusive mother.<ref group="GTA" name="Mrs. Philips"/> He loved planes, and at some point entered the military as a pilot,<ref group="GTA" name="PS-blog">{{cite web |url=http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/06/28/grand-theft-auto-v-what-we-know/ |title=Grand Theft Auto V: What We Know |last=Shuman |first=Sid |publisher=[[PlayStation Blog]] |date=28 June 2013 |access-date=30 June 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130921054702/http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/06/28/grand-theft-auto-v-what-we-know/ |archive-date=21 September 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref><ref group="GTA" name="Destructoid">{{cite web |url=http://www.destructoid.com/grand-theft-auto-v-everything-is-bigger-and-better-252852.phtml |title=Grand Theft Auto V: Everything is bigger and better |last=Aziz |first=Hamza |website=[[Destructoid]] |date=2 May 2013 |access-date=30 June 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130505095021/http://www.destructoid.com/grand-theft-auto-v-everything-is-bigger-and-better-252852.phtml |archive-date=5 May 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref> but was quickly forced to leave after being reproved in a psychological evaluation.<ref group="GTA" name="Friends Reunited"/> Later on, Trevor committed crimes, the first one being a small robbery that landed him in jail for six months. Due to good behavior, he was out in four.<ref group="GTA" name="The Paleto Score"/> He would continue his criminal ways, including using his piloting skills to become a smuggler. Trevor met Michael Townley in 1993 and they realised that they wanted to earn money by performing large [[Bank robbery|heists]], so they joined forces and became successful in doing so over the following years. Their partnership began to strain after Michael married a stripper named Amanda and started a family with her. Despite this, Trevor grew close to Michael's children, who came to see him as their uncle.<ref group="GTA" name="Friends Reunited"/>

In 2004, during a heist in Ludendorff, North Yankton, Michael and mutual accomplice Brad Snider are shot by police while Trevor escapes.<ref group="GTA" name="Prologue"/> While on the run, Trevor is led to believe that Michael died and Brad was sent to jail. Trevor eventually settles in Sandy Shores, a small town in Blaine County, San Andreas, where he establishes a small criminal enterprise that [[gunrunning|smuggles weapons]] and manufactures [[methamphetamine]], which he hopes will grow into a large empire. Due to raging [[Abandonment (emotional)|abandonment issues]], Trevor surrounds himself with two loyal friends that he kidnapped and brainwashed from their previous lives<ref group="GTA" name="Hang Ten"/> named "Nervous" Ron Jakowski and Wade Hebert. Trevor enters an uneasy truce with his competitors in Sandy Shores, including the Lost [[Outlaw motorcycle club|Motorcycle Club]] led by [[Johnny Klebitz]],<ref group="GTA" name="Mr. Philips"/> the Varrios Los Aztecas,<ref group="GTA" name="Trevor Philips Industries"/> and the O'Neil Brothers.<ref group="GTA" name="Crystal Maze"/>

In 2013, Trevor finds out that Michael faked his death, and is so spooked and enraged that he breaks the truce and kills most of his competition in one outburst of violence, a deadly streak that continues when a potential game-changing deal with a group of [[Triad (organized crime)|triads]] falls through.<ref group="GTA" name="Crystal Maze"/> He later drives to Los Santos, taking over the apartment and ruining the life of Wade's cousin Floyd, and reunites with Michael, who took on the surname "De Santa" and is supposedly living in [[United States Federal Witness Protection Program|witness protection]]. Though Michael is reluctant to have Trevor back in his life again, he eventually introduces him to Franklin Clinton, after which the two perform heists again, this time including Franklin.<ref group="GTA" name="The Merryweather Heist" /> Trevor is determined to rob anything guarded by Merryweather Security Consulting, a private security firm that he dislikes,<ref group="GTA" name="Scouting the Port"/> but he often fails.<ref group="GTA" name="The Merryweather Heist"/><ref group="GTA" name="Minor Turbulence"/>

When corrupt Federal Investigation Bureau (FIB) agents Dave Norton and Steve Haines contact Michael after he breaks his agreement with them by committing heists again, they force him to carry out a number of operations alongside Trevor and Franklin to undermine the rival International Affairs Agency (IAA).<ref group="GTA" name="Three's Company" /> Steve later introduces the trio to Devin Weston,<ref group="GTA" name="By the Book" /> a billionaire investor who hires them to steal a number of rare cars,<ref group="GTA" name="I Fought the Law..." /> but ultimately cheats them out of their money.<ref group="GTA" name="Pack Man" /> During this time, Trevor begins to bond with Franklin, as they carry out several jobs together without Michael, some of which involve Franklin's friend Lamar Davis, whom Trevor also befriends.<ref group="GTA" name="Hood Safari" /> Later, after not getting paid for a job, Trevor kidnaps Patricia, the wife of drug kingpin Martin Madrazo.<ref group="GTA" name="Caida Libre" /> Due to her kind maternal nature and his own abandonment issues, Trevor falls in love with her and only returns her to Madrazo after much demanding from Michael.<ref group="GTA" name="Derailed" /> However, the two stay in contact until the end of the game.<ref group="GTA" name="GTA V" />

Eventually, Trevor begins to suspect that Brad is not in prison and that the Ludendorff heist from nine years prior was a setup, and flies to Ludendorff to confirm his suspicions. Upon finding Brad's body in the grave marked for Michael, he deduces that the latter had made a deal with Dave to help him fake his death and get rid of Trevor, but Brad was accidentally killed during the heist instead of Trevor.<ref group="GTA" name="Bury the Hatchet" /> Feeling betrayed, Trevor vows to kill Michael, but later comes to his and Dave's aid when they are betrayed by Steve, because he needs Michael alive for one last heist.<ref group="GTA" name="The Wrap Up" /> When that heist is successful, Trevor is so pleased that he lifts the death vow but still hates Michael.<ref group="GTA" name="The Big Score" />

Near the end of the game, Franklin is approached separately by Dave and Steve, who contend that Trevor is a liability and ask Franklin to kill him, and by Devin, who seeks revenge against Michael for an earlier incident. This leaves Franklin with three choices: kill Trevor, kill Michael, or try to save them both in a [[suicide mission]].<ref group="GTA" name="Finale Intro Cutscene" />

*If the first option is chosen, Franklin meets with Trevor before chasing him to an oil plant, where Michael arrives and causes Trevor to crash into an oil tank. With Trevor covered in oil, either Franklin or Michael shoots the oil, setting Trevor alight and killing him.<ref group="GTA" name="Something Sensible" /> In the post-story gameplay, several characters react to Trevor's death, including Ron, who blames Michael for what happened and tells him that the business he and Trevor have built is over; Lamar, who asks Franklin if he knows how it happened, with the latter lying that Trevor was killed by government agents; and Michael's son Jimmy, who is shocked to learn Michael was involved, but the latter assures him that Trevor was dangerous.<ref group="GTA" name="GTA V" />
*If the second option is chosen, Franklin calls Trevor to help him kill Michael, but he refuses and cuts his ties with Franklin, saying he is tired of being surrounded by traitors.<ref group="GTA" name="The Time's Come" /> If Franklin meets with Trevor afterward, the latter accuses him of killing Michael, and warns him to stay away. Trevor is also called by Jimmy, but does not know what to say to comfort him because he was never close to his own father.<ref name="GTA V" group="GTA" />
*If the third option is chosen, Trevor and Michael put their differences aside to help Franklin survive an onslaught by the FIB and Merryweather, before splitting up to eliminate their remaining enemies; Trevor assassinates Steve and kidnaps Devin so that the trio may kill him together. Afterward, Trevor reconciles with Michael and they agree to stop working together, but remain allies.<ref group="GTA" name="The Third Way" /> After the story, Trevor can continue to hang out with Michael and Franklin, during which he eventually admits that he over-reacted after learning the truth about Brad, and refers to himself and Michael as friends.<ref group="GTA" name="GTA V" />

{{Main|Grand Theft Auto Online}}

Trevor is a main character in ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]'', the online multiplayer mode of ''Grand Theft Auto V'', set several months before the single-player story.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51487/gta-online-details-game-day-access-info-and-more.html |title=GTA Online Details: Game Day Access Info and More |author=R* Q |publisher=[[Rockstar Games]] |date=30 September 2013 |access-date=27 July 2014 |archive-date=1 October 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131001173009/http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51487/gta-online-details-game-day-access-info-and-more.html |url-status=live }}</ref> He provides missions to the player after they reach Rank 13 and steal Trevor's [[rolling meth lab]] during a job.<ref group="GTA" name="Meth'd Up" /> When the player arrives at his trailer, Trevor demands compensation for the stolen meth lab and has them complete several jobs,<ref group="GTA" name="TP Industries" /> which generally consist of stealing drugs from rivals, mainly the Lost MC, and killing the dealers.<ref group="GTA" name="Lost My Mind" /> Trevor later plays a major role in the 2015 ''Heists'' update, where he masterminds one of the heists featured in the update. This "heist" consists of the theft of drugs from various gangs, including the Lost, the O'Neil Brothers, the Los Santos Vagos, and the Ballas, which Trevor plans to sell for a large profit. After all drug shipments are collected, Trevor and the players deliver them to the deal's location, whereupon Trevor gives the players their cut in advance and they leave. When the buyer arrives, Trevor quickly realizes that the deal is a [[sting operation]], at which point he is ambushed by the Drug Observation Agency (DOA), but manages to escape, albeit without the drugs.<ref group="GTA" name="Series A Funding" />

Although Trevor makes no further appearances in the game, he is mentioned by Ron in the 2017 update ''Smuggler's Run'', which is set in that year,<ref group="GTA" name="2017 setting" /> a few years after the single-player story. Ron, after being abandoned by Trevor, contacts the player to start their own smuggling operation, and when they meet, the former briefly talks about Trevor, saying he has "gone Vinewood" and has become a "guru" and "lifestyle coach"; this confirms Trevor is still alive after the events of ''Grand Theft Auto V''.<ref group="GTA" name="Trevor Alive" /> Furthermore, the 2019 update, ''The Diamond Casino & Resort'', includes a mention of the events of "The Third Way," implying that both Trevor and Michael canonically survive the events of the single-player story.<ref group="GTA" name="Canon Ending" /> Trevor is further referenced in the 2020 update, ''The Cayo Perico Heist'', which features a salacious picture of him and Patricia Madrazo, confirming the two did have an affair together;<ref group="GTA" name="Cayo Perico" /> the 2021 update, ''The Contract'', in which he is mentioned as one of several people to visit Franklin at his new agency, "F. Clinton and Partner", which he runs with the help of the player character;<ref group="GTA" name="The Contract" /> and in the 2022 update, ''Los Santos Drug Wars'', when Ron informs the player that Trevor has left Sandy Shores and most of Trevor Philips Enterprises' assets have been abandoned.<ref group="GTA" name="LS Drug Wars" />

===Controversies===
{{See also|Grand Theft Auto V#Controversies}}

The mission "By the Book" from ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'' was criticised for its depiction of [[torture]].<ref name="Gamespot Review"/><ref name="Eurogamer Disturbing"/><ref name="Guardian Torture"/> In the mission, Trevor interrogates Ferdinand "Mr. K" Kerimov for information about Tahir Javan, a suspected [[Azerbaijani people|Azerbaijani]] fugitive who poses a threat to the FIB (the game's version of the [[FBI]]). Trevor uses torture equipment on the restrained man, which players select from a table. Once Mr. K provides the FIB with the information, Trevor is asked to kill him, but instead drives him to the airport, providing him an opportunity to escape. While driving Kerimov, Trevor monologues about the ineffectiveness of torture, pointing out Kerimov's readiness to supply the FIB with the information without being tortured, and expressing that torture is used as a power play "to assert ourselves".<ref name="By the Book quote" group="GTA"/>

Reviewers echoed that while the mission served as political commentary on [[Torture and the United States|the use of torture by the United States government]], its use of torture was in poor taste. ''GameSpot''{{'}}s Petit felt that placing the torture scene in context with the monologue created a hypocrisy in the mission's function as a commentary device,<ref name="Gamespot Review"/> and ''IGN''{{'}}s Keza MacDonald felt it "pushed the boundaries of taste".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/09/16/grand-theft-auto-v-review |title=Grand Theft Auto V Review |last=MacDonald |first=Keza |date=16 September 2013 |website=[[IGN]] |access-date=16 September 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130916190840/http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/09/16/grand-theft-auto-v-review |archive-date=16 September 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref> In an editorial, Bramwell discussed whether the political commentary was overshadowed by the violent content, comparing the mission to ''[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]]''{{'}}s  "[[No Russian]]" controversy. He considered the sequence lacking enough context to justify its violence and summarised its function as "flawed".<ref name="Eurogamer Disturbing">{{cite web |url=http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-09-16-is-the-most-disturbing-scene-in-gta5-justified |title=Is the most disturbing scene in GTA5 justified? |last=Bramwell |first=Tom |date=22 September 2013 |website=[[Eurogamer]] |access-date=16 September 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130918045543/http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-09-16-is-the-most-disturbing-scene-in-gta5-justified |archive-date=18 September 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref> [[Labour Party (UK)|Labour]] MP [[Keith Vaz]] expressed concern that underage players could be exposed to the mission.<ref name="Guardian Torture">{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/sep/18/grand-theft-auto-5-under-fire-for-graphic-torture-scene |title=Grand Theft Auto 5 under fire for graphic torture scene |last=Hern |first=Alex |date=19 September 2013 |newspaper=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |location=London |access-date=21 April 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130920015304/http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/sep/18/grand-theft-auto-5-under-fire-for-graphic-torture-scene |archive-date=20 September 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref> Keith Best of [[Freedom from Torture]] said the torturer role-play "crossed a line".<ref name="Guardian Torture"/> Tom Chick defended the torture sequence, and wrote that unlike the "No Russian" mission or the 2012 film ''[[Zero Dark Thirty]]'', the underlying political commentary on torture in "By the Book" necessitated the violent content.<ref name="Tom Chick GTA V">{{cite web |url=http://www.quartertothree.com/fp/2013/09/21/grand-theft-auto-v-relevant-story-torture-since-zero-dark-thirty/ |title=Is Grand Theft Auto V the most relevant story about torture since Zero Dark Thirty? |author-link=Tom Chick |last=Chick |first=Tom |date=21 September 2013 |publisher=Quarter to Three |access-date=17 March 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140317111446/http://www.quartertothree.com/fp/2013/09/21/grand-theft-auto-v-relevant-story-torture-since-zero-dark-thirty/ |archive-date=17 March 2014 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }}</ref>
