KLUTE, Donald Sutherland, Jane Fonda, 1971
Jane Fonda is speaking out about the passing of Donald Sutherland, her co-star from the Alan J. Pakula crime drama Klute.
In an Instagram post on Thursday, Fonda recalled how much she enjoyed working with Sutherland and the many adventures they ended up taking together.
In Klute, Sutherland played opposite Fonda as New York gumshoe John Klute, who is hired to find a chemical company executive who has disappeared. Fonda won her first Oscar for the role, and Andy Lewis & Dave Lewis were nominated for their Original Screenplay.
Sutherland, 88, died Thursday in Miami after a long illness. He starred in scores of films from The Dirty Dozen, MASH and Klute to Animal House and Ordinary People to Pride & Prejudice and The Hunger Games franchise and won an Emmy for Citizen X.
The 2017 Honorary Oscar recipient also is the father of Emmy-winning 24 and Designated Survivor actor Kiefer Sutherland and veteran CAA Media Finance exec Roeg Sutherland.
