Jane Fonda is mourning the loss of the “brilliant” and “complex” Donald Sutherland.
Following Sutherland’s death at age 88 on Thursday, June 20, the Oscar-winning actress posted to Instagram an image of the two of them together on the set of their 1971 hit Klute. The crime drama earned Fonda the first of her two best actress Oscars and starred Sutherland as the titular detective and Fonda as a call girl who helps him in a missing persons case.
Writing that she felt “stunned to hear” her costar had died, Fonda, 86, called him “fascinating.”
“We loved working together,” her caption continued. “In this photo we are on the Klute set with director Alan Pakula. Donald was a brilliant actor and a complex man who shared quite a few adventures with me.”
