The not-quite retiring Robert Redford

▤ Summary

But even legends have ends, which bring us to our Lee Cowan: Weve seen Robert Redford a time or two over the years, but on our latest visit he told us something his fans arent going to want to hear. What he says will be his last role has the "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" star robbing banks again, in "The Old Man & the Gun." Its based on the true story of Forrest Tucker, a lifelong outlaw who escaped from nearly every prison he was confined to, continuing to rob banks well into his late 70s. He was already a superstar when Charles Kuralt visited him in 1994, at the top of his Sundance retreat in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. Cowan and Redford first met five years ago, while he was promoting the film "All Is Lost."
