Kane Phillips is a fictional character from the Australian Channel Seven soap opera Home and Away, played by Sam Atwell.

[1] Kane is first seen in school at Summer Bay High when a group of Year 9 students talks about a Dance party he is hosting.

Kane tries to woo one of his teachers, Shauna Bradley (Kylie Watson), by getting her tickets to see Savage Garden in concert, but she declines.

Kane tries his luck with Dani Sutherland (Tammin Sursok), who is currently on a break from Will Smith (Zac Drayson).

Kane stands trial with Morag Bellingham (Cornelia Frances) presiding as the judge and is found not guilty, leaving Dani distraught.

The following year, Kane returns to the bay and agrees to a mediation session with Dani and the local counselor, Flynn Saunders (Martin Dingle-Wall).

Kane later takes a job aboard a boat named The Mirgini, which is to set sail for the sesquicentenary celebrations of Summer Bay.

The boat begins sinking, and Kane is washed up on a deserted beach with Dani's mother, Shelley (Paula Forrest) and sister Kirsty for a week.

During their escape, Kane faces challenges in locating their workplace, and Kirsty comes dangerously close to a sexual assault from an intoxicated individual.

Seb Miller (Mitch Firth), Kirsty's current boyfriend, takes exception to Kane and punches him.

Kane is shocked when his father Gus (Peter Lamb) reappears in his life and is hostile towards him as Scott had beaten him in his childhood.

Kirsty wants to give herself up after being on the run, but unknown to her, Kane robs the Diner and attempts to turn over a jewelry store in Yabbie Creek but is stopped by Larry Jefferies (Paul Gleason).

Officers Jack Holden (Paul O'Brien) and Lara Fitzgerald (Rebecca George) begin a car chase with Kane and Kirsty.

Morag agrees to represent Kane but accepts a deal to plead guilty to all charges in exchange for the exoneration of Irene and Kirsty.

Teenagers Jai Fernandez (Jordan Rodrigues) and Annie Campbell (Charlotte Best) ask Kane for a lift to look for Melody Jones (Celeste Dodwell), who has recently left a mental institute.

They find Melody in the middle of the road; Kane swerves to avoid her and ends up crashing into the Diner, injuring himself and several other formal attendees.
