A well-known actor in Hollywood, Kiefer Sutherland is best recognized for playing the title character in the television series 24. Although he has undoubtedly succeeded himself and shows no signs of slowing down in his fifties, he must have been motivated to pursue this career by someone. His own distinguished father, Donald Sutherland, who began his career in 1962 and has starred in movies like The Hunger Games series, Ordinary People, and Citizen X, would be that great guy.
