Kiefer Sutherland

The Anglo-Canadian artist has the prestigious Golden Globe and Emmy Awards. The son of famous parents, Kiefer Sutherland managed to escape from their shadows and occupied his niche in the world cinema. In 2011, Kiefer had a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame - a week earlier than his father, Donald Sutherland.

The parents of the Melancholy star, Canadian actors Donald Sutherland and Shirley Douglas, worked in Britain in 1966. The birth of Kiefer and his twin sister Rachel in a London hospital gave the young Sutherlands, in addition to Canadian, also British citizenship. The son was named after the director and writer Warren Kiefer.

In the veins of Sutherland, Canadian and Scottish blood was mixed. Maternal grandfather Tommy Douglas is a native of the Scottish town of Falkirk. In Canada, everyone knows this name: according to polls of citizens, a former politician and prime minister of one of the provinces consistently ranks in the top 10 outstanding compatriots.

After the birth of the kids, the couple left Britain and settled in Los Angeles. But when the children were 4 years old, family life cracked. And after 5 years, Shirley, taking the heirs, returned to Canada. The future Hollywood actor spent his childhood and youth in Toronto. Kiefer changed 7 private schools, receiving a certificate from St. Clare's educational institution in East York.

Moving from one North American state to another, Sutherland has learned to speak fluent French. Being born into a creative family predetermined fate: at the age of 9, Kiefer first appeared on the stage. He devoted his teenage years to studying his future profession, attending Sunday acting classes. He set off to conquer the "dream factory" at the age of 17.

The charismatic Kiefer, both in his youth and later, enjoyed increased attention of women, although it is difficult to call him a tall handsome man (height - 1.75 m with a weight of about 80 kg). But Sutherland can only dream of long family happiness and a cozy nest where his beloved wife and children await him. One of the reasons for the troubles in the personal life of the stars is called an excessive love of alcohol.

In the late 1980s, Kiefer married Camelia, the widow of guitarist Terry Cat. In 1988, the couple had a daughter, Sarah Jude, but after 2 years the marriage broke up.

On the set of the film "Flatulent" in 1992, Sutherland met his partner Julia Roberts. The romance that broke out almost ended in marriage: the couple announced their engagement. Julia and Kiefer publicly confessed their feelings and shared plans to invite 600 guests to the wedding. But a few days before the celebration, Roberts found her lover in the warm company of dancer Amanda Rice.

Kiefer Sutherland registered his second official marriage in 1996. Down the aisle with the windy actor went model Elizabeth Kelly Wynn. Together, the couple held out for a year. The official divorce was formalized in 2008.

At the end of the same year, Sutherland Jr. was arrested for drunk driving. This is not the first time the famous actor skated while under the influence of alcohol. This time he was given 48 days in prison. Behind bars, the Hollywood star celebrated his birthday and Christmas.

A man does not give up his dream of finding a soul mate. He does not exclude that the third marriage will be happy, and he will have a family. If you believe the rumors, at one time Kiefer met with the ex-model and editor of fashion gloss Sioban Bonnuvrie, then the actress Cindy Vela became his chosen one. The couple openly announced their relationship in 2018.

The star loves rodeos, for which he acquired a ranch in Montana. Another serious hobby of the actor is music. He is a fan of the cult band Queen, has collected an impressive collection (fifty) of vintage guitars, has been playing the instrument and writing songs since the age of 10. Kiefer did not immediately appear on the stage. In 2015, he prepared a program, and over the next 5 years as a singer, together with his friends, he gave more than 300 concerts.

The performers work in the country genre. The artists managed to get to know the members of the Muse group thanks to the filmed video. They became interested in Sutherland's work, and the actor appeared at Muse as an opening act.

In 2016, Kiefer released his debut album Down In A Hole at Mercury Nashville Studios. The composer Jude Cole became the author of the music for many hits. So far, this is the only work in Sutherland's discography.

In 2019, the actor visited Moscow, where he performed with his musicians before the Muse concert. The event took place at the Luzhniki stadium. In the capital of Russia, Kiefer visited the entertainment studio "Evening Urgant". This is not the first appearance of a Hollywood star on Russian television. Previously, he took part in the filming of Vladimir Pozner's program.

The cinematic biography of Kiefer Sutherland opens with the role of Bill in the comedy melodrama "The Return of Max Dagan". The film is notable for the fact that the aspiring actor starred in it with his father, Donald Sutherland.

A successful debut opened the way for the young man to the world of cinema. The following year, he was entrusted with a role in the film "Boy from the Bay". In 1986, the artist appeared in four projects, of which the most rated was the drama "Stay with Me".

Kiefer Sutherland's career developed rapidly. In his fifth year in Los Angeles, he was offered to play the vampire David in the youth hit movie Lost Boys. The film grossed $ 32 million and won a Saturn Award for Best Horror Film of 1987. Later, film critics wrote that the picture contributed to the spread of the Goth subculture in America, and vampires became heroes of the younger generation for a long time.

In the same year, Sutherland Jr. played the main character in the thriller Time to Kill. His character, a killer with no name, is so convincing that Kiefer is nominated for Best Movie Villain at the MTV Movie Awards.

But the famous Canadian was made by the Western "Young Archers", released in 1988, and its sequel. In the action-packed film, Kiefer Sutherland starred in a stellar company with Charlie Sheen, Emilio Estevez and Lou Diamond Phillips. This is the first project where Sutherland was offered the role of a full-length character, before "Young Shooters" he played troubled teenagers.

The actor's success was consolidated by the thriller "Flatulers" directed by Joel Schumacher, which premiered in 1990. Kiefer Sutherland appeared on screen alongside Julia Roberts and Kevin Bacon, playing the main character Nelson. Together with Reese Witherspoon, the actor starred in the film Highway.

After 2 years, viewers saw the prequel to the cult series "Twin Peaks", called "Through the fire, walk with me", where the Canadian got the role of forensic scientist Sam Stanley. Among the most successful works of the actor in the 90s should be called roles in the project "The Three Musketeers" (played by Athos), the neo-noir detective "Fallen Angels" and the dystopian drama "The Dark City". Then the thriller "Disappearance" with Kiefer in the title role was released.

In the early 90s, Kiefer Sutherland emerged as a director. He made his debut with the thriller Last Light, which became popular a few years after the premiere. The aspiring director starred in the project. Then Sutherland's filmography grew with two films, of which the drama "Look for a Woman" became the rating. Kiefer took the key role for himself.
