One of his sons is also a star in Hollywood and took after the family name as Donald has a great passion for films. His son Kiefer Sutherland, Sarah Jude Sutherland, amidst other family members, are classical actors too.

Donald is one of the biggest stars to ever come out of Canada and looking back at his childhood, it was a roller coaster. 

Donald suffered from polio when he was a child,  even had rheumatic fever, and had to spend his fourth grade at home.

When he became a teenager, his life didn’t get better as he was called a Dumbo for his unusual big ears and tail nature.

When he started college, he was so insecure about everything and it was at those moments he found his vision and passion in life. From his first audition, he performed more than an average actor.

His first role was in Castle of the living dead and he played alongside Christopher Lee, a Hollywood star. He played all minor roles and was close to his breakthrough in the industry.

Again, his big ears were obvious, but this time he was the one with the last laugh, and he who laughs last laughs best. He got his breakthrough when the director Bob Aldrich went on and called him the guy with the big ears, you take the lead role and that’s how his life changed.
