In the series Vorstadtweiber (2015-2022), he embodies a corrupt and cynical homosexual politician, who loses his mind and becomes a murderer.[14]

In the third season of Charité (German-Netflix-Production, 2020), Hochmair stars as Professor Otto Prokop, an Austrian forensic pathologist who was internationally recognized for his influence on forensic medicine and research policy during German Democratic Republic.[15]

Die Wannseekonferenz (2022, directed by Matti Geschonneck) is a multi-award winning[20] German TV docudrama:[21][22] On January 20, 1942, leading representatives of the Nazi Regime meet at Wannsee in Berlin at the invitation of Reinhard Heydrich (Philipp Hochmair). The meeting will go down in history as the Wannsee Conference. The sole topic of discussion is the so-called "Final Solution of the Jewish Question" by the National Socialists: the organization of the systematic mass murder of the Jews of Europe by the millions.
