Award-winning actor Kiefer Sutherland became the 2,377th star to be honored on Hollywood's "Walk of Fame," completing a rollercoaster 12 months that saw him begin the year in a prison cell.
Sutherland, best known as crime-fighting special agent Jack Bauer in the blockbuster television series "24," attended a morning ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard to see his sidewalk star unveiled.
The ceremony to honor the 41-year-old Canadian actor was watched by his actor father Donald Sutherland and film-maker Joel Schumacher, who directed Sutherland in four films.
Sutherland made his acting debut in the 1983 flick "Max Dugan Returns" and went on to appear in a string of hits over the next decade including "Stand By Me," "The Lost Boys" and "Flatliners."
Other screen credits include another appearance with his father in 1996 film "A Time to Kill," "Young Guns," and "The Three Musketeers."
Sutherland served a 48-day prison term before being released in January following an arrest for drunk driving in 2007.
The actor was jailed after it emerged he was already on probation for another drink driving violation in 2004.
