Articles Credit Goes to UNI INDIA

Los Angeles, June 21 (UNI) Prolific actor and vocal anti-war activist Donald Sutherland has died in Miami following prolonged illness. He was 88.

Sutherland, whose acting career spanned six decades, included such highly acclaimed films as Don’t Look Now, M*A*S*H and The Hunger Games.

His son, actor Kiefer Sutherland, posted on X: "With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film.

"Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived."

The news was met with an outpouring of support and tributes.

Sutherland had almost 200 film credits to his name. He did not, however, win a major award for any of his film roles (and was never nominated for a conventional Oscar), but did win two Golden Globes for best supporting actor for the TV movies Citizen X (in 1996) and Path to War (in 2003), the Guardian said.

Sutherland received an honorary Oscar in 2017.
