Beloved actor and conservative icon Donald Sutherland passes away at 88.

Donald Sutherland, the legendary actor known for his roles in "M*A*S*H" and "The Hunger Games," has died at the age of 88. His son, Kiefer Sutherland, announced the news on Thursday, calling his father "one of the most important actors in the history of film."

Born in New Brunswick, Canada, Sutherland studied engineering before moving to the UK to pursue acting. He began his career with minor roles in films such as "Castle of the Living Dead" and "Fanatic," but his breakthrough came with the 1967 film "The Dirty Dozen."

Sutherland went on to star in numerous films throughout his career, including "M*A*S*H," "Klute," and "National Lampoon's Animal House." He was also known for his political activism, having made an anti-Vietnam War documentary with his then-girlfriend Jane Fonda in 1971.


Despite his long and successful career, Sutherland never won an Oscar. However, he was awarded an honorary Academy Award in 2017 for his contributions to cinema.

Sutherland is survived by his wife, Francine Racette, and their three sons, as well as his son Kiefer and daughter Rachel from his previous marriage to Shirley Douglas.

The actor's death has been met with an outpouring of tributes from fans and fellow actors alike. Many have praised Sutherland's talent and his impact on the film industry.

In a statement, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said, "Donald Sutherland was a true legend of cinema. His contributions to the industry will never be forgotten."

Sutherland's passing is a great loss for the entertainment world, but his legacy will live on through his many iconic roles and his activism. He will be remembered as a true icon of cinema and a beloved figure in the conservative community.
