When most hear the term “family business,” they often think of a small trade shop- maybe a restaurant or bakery; a hardware storefront or service related business. Sometimes one will associate a “family business” with a larger corporation that has “struck gold” and made it big. Regardless of the many trade and service type businesses often associated with “family businesses,” one you don’t often hear being referred to as a family business is show business.

Rossif Sutherland, brother of Kiefer Sutherland and son of Donald Sutherland and Francine Racette, grew up watching his parents on the big screen, and eventually watched his brother join the family business as an actor himself. Their work didn’t inspire Rossif to join, at least not initially.

“I didn’t particularly want to be an actor growing up although I was around it all the time… I didn’t really get the craft. I figured it out only later on in my life,” said Rossif Sutherland (thechronicleherald.ca).

This past weekend, Rossif Sutherland’s first break into the “family business” opened in Toronto, a film titled “I’m Yours.”
