Michael Fassbender has paid tribute to Kerry actor, Donal Courtney who passed away earlier this week. Donal, who is best known for his work as an actor, playwright and director died after a short illness at the age of 52.

He wrote; “I met Donie when I was 17 years old. The encounter was something that would change my life immeasurably. We remained firm friends ever since.” Continuing he went on to say how pivotal a role Donal had in getting him interested in acting from a young age; “His talent was as much a force of nature as it was eminent. His sense of human nature was uncanny. He would make himself the butt of the joke so everyone around him could gain confidence from it.”

“He is remembered by his family first and foremost, which for him was where his inspiration, joy and heart belonged. The rest of us will feel blessed and lucky for whatever time we’ve been able to share in his company.”
