Actor Donald Sutherland, star of films including The Hunger Games and Don't Look Now, has died at 88 after a long illness.

His son, the actor Kiefer Sutherland, announced his father's death in a statement.

"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," he said.
"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."

Sutherland starred in films including The Dirty Dozen, MASH and Klute.

One of the Canadian actor's breakout roles was as Hawkeye Pierce, a surgeon in the 1970 film version of MASH, a comedy about medics in the Korean War.

R.I.P. Donald Sutherland.
A great actor from generation of great actors.
Who could forget Sergeant Oddball.

For in his role in the movie National Lampoon’s Animal House he was offered a fee of $25000 or a 2% share of the profits.
He took the fee because he thought the film would bomb but it didn’t and he would have made between $15 and $20 million.

He was definitely the best character in Kelly's Heroes. R.I.P. Donald Sutherland.

R.I.P. Odball, he really suited that character and was made to play that part.
