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.
