Canadian actor Donald Sutherland has died, his family announced on Thursday. He was 88.

"With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away," his son Kiefer Sutherland posted on social media.
Sutherland had a long career spanning the 1960s through to the 2020s, reports DW.
He was known for roles like Hawkeye Piece, the rascally army surgeon in "MASH," and more recently as President Coriolanus Snow in "The Hunger Games."
"I personally think [he was] one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly," his son wrote.
"He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived."
