BREAKING: Donald Sutherland has died at age 88

Kiefer Sutherland, the actor's son, confirmed his father's death Thursday. No further details were immediately available.

Donald Sutherland was a credit to Canadian acting, and a gentleman throughout his career. I will not forget him particularly in his roles as secret service agents with objections. Long live the Sutherlands. 🎖

A film critic who doesn’t do his homework….. DONALD PLAYED ODDBALL IN KELLYS HEROES…. RIP Oddball and thank you. 👍🏻🇨🇦👍🏻

[@Bannysadkosays2u]

He was hillarious in Kelly's Heroes. He was also hillarious in Invasion of The Body Snatchers.

[@jenniferjohnson5961]

Rest in peace Donald we love you so much❤❤❤

[@mr8966]

Legend. Turned down percentage of the gross on Animal House for a flat 25k and said it turned out to be his worst financial decision ever.

[@plaidzebra5526]

Loved him, one of the best actors ever! Loved him as Oddball the Hippie tank commander in Kelly's Hero's, the Villain Irishman in The Eagle Has Landed, The Old Timer ladies man in Space Cowboy's, and of course President Snow in the Hunger Games. This guy could do it all. Will forever miss him

[@JM-yz2fj]

He was great in Kelly's Hero's

[@stephfahey1101]

RIP to my fellow Canadian :(

[@jenniferatkinson5519]

😭

[@generalpublic3744]

Next times get a critic who actually knows which character the actor played in which film!!!! Donald's Oddball character had, still has, a cult following and it was not a character in the Dirty Dozen!

[@donadams7943]

Donald played a character named Homer Simpson in 1975's The Day of the Locust.

[@christophercarriere2218]

Twice you said Dirty Dozen... seriously?

[@verarice3758]
