Gee, I’ve always heard that badmouthing established Hollywood name personalities is a really bad idea.
Sutherland is an actor, I like watching “24”, and who cares what this guy thinks? Don’t like him, don’t work with him, simple as pie.
And maybe Freddie Prinze Jr. is just a whiny little butthole - you know, I would be more inclined to believe that.
Did he Unfriend Keifer?
One of the very few shows our family likes to watch. We rented the movie to see this evening.
Did I miss something or does Prinze Jr and/or the article provide absolutely no examples of Kiefer Sutherland’s unprofessional behavior?
Jack Bauer sleeps with a night light because the dark is afraid of Jack Bauer.
You're a real wheenie, Jr.
I knew Kiefer’s ex-body double. He said the guy was really nice but a real drinker. Actually if you just happen to be in some dive bar in L.A. he might pick up the tab for everyone.
LOL!
I’ve read that Sutherland is a notorious alcoholic.
Amazing how many confused Freepers think Jack Bauer and Queefer Sutherland are the same person. He’s a leftie actor playing a part, guys.
Since it was ABC, known troublemakers, I would have declined to answer that. Sometimes declining to answer says it all.
What role did Freddie Prinze, Jr. play? I don’t remember him in 24 and after looking quickly on IMDB, his character’s name still doesn’t ring a bell.
What did ring a bell though was noticing in IMDB, and recalling that Prinze, Jr had played “Donny Crane” in Boston Legal. Prinze, Jr playing Denny Crane’s alleged son was unforgettable for me because Prinze, Jr had seemed uncomfortable, very stiff, and had appeared to be reciting lines and posing for the camera rather than in the role.
What I’d read long ago about Sutherland was that he is very professional, but who knows what’s a press release and what’s the truth.
This might be also be a case where Sutherland granted permission or, in a run it up the flagpole mode, perhaps Sutherland suggested that Freddie Prinze, Jr. make a silly disparaging remark. They both would get their names in the news, Sutherland loses nothing and Freddie Prinze, Jr. gets a bit of a boost in publicity.
The great screenwriter William Goldman wrote, that in spite of how much importance is attached to ‘doing lunch’ in Hollywood, the lunches are really quite short, usually less than 30 minutes. He attributed that to the fact that actors can’t fake interest in anyone other than themselves for more than a half hour. I always assume actors are jerks no matter their screen persona.
I don't "follow" Hollywood in the least, but I have never heard before that Kiefer Sutherland was an asshole to work with...
Lots of people worked on the '24" series and I never heard a peep...
Odd how he’s not very specific about the issues with Sutherland. He paints with a broad brush.
Was Kiefer late all the time? Did he not know his lines? Was he a prima donna? A whiner? High?
Hard to tell what Prinze is complaining about.
Freddie Prinze Jr. claims to be a Republican

The amount of factual reporting on theism thread is overwhelming. I HEARD that. I READ that. My cousin knew a guy. I think his dad was……. Socialists make difficult actors.
I feel like I really know the guy now.
