Fans pay tribute to acting legend

In the midst of news of Donald Sutherland's death, fans are sharing tributes to the actor.

"Rest in peace to perhaps the best character actor Canada ever gave the world," wrote one fan. "Donald Sutherland could do it all. Camp. Comedy. Horror. Drama. He excelled at being a scene stealer. A guy you could rely on to runaway with the film for a bit. He’s still the king of exposition."

"Donald Sutherland is genuinely one of the most underrated, under appreciated actors of all time," another tweeted. "Not a role he didn’t instantly elevate by his sheer presence alone."

Posthumous release of memoir in November

Donald Sutherland had a memoir released lined up at the end of the year, prior to his death.

The book, when released, will feature recounts of his time working on films such as M*A*S*H, The Hunger Games, and Ordinary People, according to AP.

“Donald Sutherland has made an indelible mark on the industry since his life-changing role in M.A.S.H catapulted him into the public eye nearly sixty years ago,” the publisher said in a statement, per the outlet.

“With his raw honesty and wicked sense of humor, the renowned actor chronicles his life in this generation-defining book, cataloging with powerful detail his far too many brushes with death, his loving relationship with his parents, and behind-the-scenes stories of the movies he’s starred in.”

The title of the memoir is Made Up, But Still True, and it will be his first published work as an author.
