He protested the US war in Vietnam alongside Fonda. Some of their efforts were chronicled in the 1972 documentary F.T.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sutherland also channeled his beliefs into some of his roles, including The Hunger Games: Mockingjay &#8211; Part 2, released in 2015. Sutherland played the tyrannical President Snow, the target of heroine Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence, as she sought to assassinate Snow and liberate her fellow citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sutherland told BBC News in 2015 that he hoped the film&#8217;s socio-political message will help young fans become more aware of the world around them. In the film, Panem is a society where an elite class rules over poverty-stricken masses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I have been convinced for the last 30 years that they weren&#8217;t thinking politically at all,&#8221; says Sutherland. &#8220;The purpose of everybody involved in this was try to get them engaged. As Bruce Springsteen said, &#8216;Blind faith in your leaders&#8230; will get you killed.'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His death comes months before his memoir was set to be released, Made Up, But Still True, a book about his personal journey as an actor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2015, Sutherland told BBC News that one of the biggest changes he&#8217;s noticed in the industry over his career is that recent actors were making &#8220;a lot of money&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think anybody of my generation became an actor to make money. It never occurred to me. I made \u00a38 a week here [on stage in London]. When I starred in a play at the Royal Court, I made \u00a317 a week, that was in 1964,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time, he said he has no plans to retire from acting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a passionate endeavour. Retirement for actors is spelt &#8216;DEATH&#8217;.&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"antig-2084795767\" class=\"antig-in-comments_2 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/@hadeedmotorsltd\" aria-label=\"Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1000\/h:250\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1000\/h:250\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png 1000w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:75\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:768\/h:192\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" width=\"1000\" height=\"250\"   \/><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BBC- Actor Donald Sutherland, star of films including The Hunger Games and Don&#8217;t Look Now, has died at 88 after a long illness.
