I loved the way he portrayed Phillip and didn't care for the explanation we got as to why he left. He was my favorite discipline because he had a gentle helpful nature and reached out to help Matthew with such sweetness He also reached out to others in the show and saved his friend, Nathaniel at a very dark time. He has shown the most maturity of all the disciples and I'm sure it came from his time with John the Baptist.

Yes I agree with you

Yes, Yoshi brought a huge personality to Philip. I loved how Yoshi was able to match the bravado of Simon... With his wit and accepting charm. I love the scene where Philip tells Matthew what to say when Simon was riding him. Yoshi was just a perfect balance for the other disciples personalities. Hopefully Reza will rise to the occasion when called upon. There is a potential scene where Philip is miraculously transported... This could be his breakthrough scene.🙏🙏🙏❤

What I notice is that Phillip just wasn't given many lines and didn't have a chance to shine. I expected the writers to include him more to let the fans get to know him, and it didn't happen. After Yoshi's personality, I don't think we can expect anyone to play him the same. Let's give Reza a chance!

I really enjoyed Yoshi's portrayal of Phillip. I will miss him. Sad that he is gone, but I wish him well.

These two men have different souls. One wanted to go, the new one will be just fine. Give him a chance ❤

I liked Yoshi, but Reza has been put in an impossible situation that is being made worse by certain fans piling onto him. It seems to me that the writers and showrunners have chosen to script Reza as the "new guy", which is definitely out of place for a character who was a long time-disciple of John the Baptist. That's not Reza's fault, though. Additionally, if he had tried to act exactly like Yoshi, certain vocal fans would be saying "Who does this guy think he is?" and treat him as an impostor, but if he had tried to act differently and make the part his own, many of the same fans would berate him for coopting and changing the role. It's lose-lose for the guy.

I agree with your assessment. In a few more episodes, Reza will start to shine in his role. Support Reza!

If we are watching The Chosen for the spritual truths that God has chosen to reveal thru the show, then won't those truths will shine through all the cast, even new members? God's Truth can withstand cast changes just as it shines despite historical inaccuracies. If we truly believe that everything works to the good for those who love Him (God), can we be open minded that there are good things in store for Yoshi and for the show with Reza? I wish all involved well. Thank you, Yoshi, for sharing your talents with us in your portrayal of Philip, esp. his unjudging kindness to Matthew. May your next chapter be blessed & guided by the Lord. Good luck, Reza. May you draw divine inspiration to portray Philip in a way that enlightens people, as well as grace to withstand the challenging period while people prejudge you in the role.

We should remember that this cast has had years to get to know each other, help each other, trust each other and have the kind of character development they do. Reza gets thrown in the deep end and is expected to do something that takes years to develop, and I personally thought he did it brilliantly. Well done and welcome to the chosen family, Reza.

Unfortunately Dallas hasn’t been giving the new Philip the same screen time as the old one, and we’ve had 2 Seasons to get to know Yoshi, where the new guy has barely spoken. He’s a big guy, deep voice, very handsome, I believe that given a chance, and some solo time on screen, that we will come to love him like the former, maybe even more!

Yoshi certainly has a unique and noticeable personality that he brought to the character of Philip. I loved him in the role from his opening lines and how he delivered them, was sad to see him go. He enthusiastically played Philip and was a joy to watch, there's no replicating him. However, even with big shoes to fill, I believe Reza will grow into those shoes and do Philip justice.

Granted, a lot of this was the writing but Yoshi's performance and personality had a lot to making that work. I wish Reza the best and hope he does as good of a job.

You don’t follow the nicene creed like most Christian’s do you? Maybe it’s not mourning his absence, but patiently (sometimes impatiently) his second coming.

So far it seems the show is purposefully keeping him more in the background. It’s honestly hard for me to tell the difference between him and Thaddeus. I hope that the new Phillip gets his chance to shine, and that he has shine to give. Time will tell.

I thought Yoshi was amazing as Phillip! His personality seemed a perfect fit. You say it wasn’t his back but I saw an interview where even he said it was his back. I would have preferred Yoshi stay but it is the business in general and wish Yoshi and Reza well.

Yoshi made Philip unique from the beginning and became a favorite to me. He just made you happy. Reza could have carried that over but didn't. Yoshi made Philip a favorite of mine, and unless Reza can add the same personality, the character will be lost. Each actor brings something to the character they play so some stand out and some do not. We will see if this new actor brings character or fades into the background.

It cannot be easy for any actor to take over the role of another. Yoshi was brilliant in the Chosen and when we get used to Reza we will find his role good too.

Reza's performance of Philip was flat and void of any personality trait that stood out. Reza really plays Philip as "one of those other disciples". You can give him all the time in the world, his portrayal of Philip will not improve. He is a professional actor; you either nail the performance right away, or you never do.

Reza is just fine as Phillip.

Maybe Phillip's character is still mourning the loss of his friend John the Baptist and it is reflected in his role in these last episodes

I feel that there was differences between Dallas and Yoshi about the role of Phillip, just my personal opinion. There was such a drastic change in the actions of the beginning Phillip and the Phillip right before Yoshi left. Maybe he didn’t agree with the way things were going? Anyway, I thought he was absolutely fabulous as Phillip. The “new” Phillip no way has the “personality “ of Yoshi, but I think he definitely will portray Phillip differently, two different actors!

Agree... the original was my fav!

I loved Yoshi, but I'm happy to give someone else a chance in the roll. Unfortunately, I have not seen Reeza bring anything to the roll and he seems like an incorrect choice for the character. It's like I'm watching two completely different characters. I totally agree with the assessment that his performance feels very much like someone who's just doing a job, rather than bringing personality and craft to their his portrayal. He feels like a glorified extra. And Philip is really vital in this story so it just feels extremely awkward and wrong to have basically downgraded his importance. I'm wondering if they were in a bind and didn't have time to thoroughly audition or something. The blame for the roll of Philip changing so much is not all Reeza's fault, it's the writers and the studio too. And for everyone so sensitive about people not liking his portrayal, calm down. You love The Chosen, we love The Chosen. No one's attacking Reeza as a human being.

I thoroughly enjoyed yoshi philip. He came in early in the season as an experienced disciple when peter and andrew were just learning the ropes and making bad decisions. It was breath of fresh air. Plus, he made philip very welcoming, and yes Yoshi can play a very good Jesus character. To me the new philip is a towering intimidating person. A very big contrast

It's okay to judge and compare the actors' performances because The Chosen is first and foremost a TV show. Yoshi brought Philip to life. So far Reza has not. His performance is not just toned down in comparison to Yoshi's; it's expressionless and bland. Unless Reza changes his acting style, which is unlikely, it is what it is. Not sure what was seen during the audition but It's giving last minute hasty hire.

I liked Yoshi better. I didn't even know who the new guy was, until I came across this video. I did notice the new guy, but noticed he was boring. Yoshi was not boring at all & I really enjoyed him in the role of Phillip. Buy don't really have a choice but to give Reza a chance, since I have no control or say in what happens in that show. :D

Yoshi vs. Reza : Yoshi had a bounce in his step. He seemed to be more congenial, more spark. Reza seems to be quieter and more rested. Let's see what happens when he gets into his character.

I knew what you meant. I think most of us feel it. But we have 3 more seasons after this one, so we'll see what happens.

Both actors are very good.

I may rock some boats but overall, i feel Dallas needs to step back a lot. Watchers of The Chosen dont need Dallas commentary. Let the show itself and the team SHINE 🌞. We are sold and love your series. Step back a bit...a lil bit. It can be smothering sometimes Dalles and i pray that same over-saturation is not happening with the cast & crew.

Apart from all these things, let's not forget the message of the show.
