Redford won an Academy Award for directing Ordinary People (1980), along with a BAFTA Award and two Golden Globes. He later received the Cecil B. DeMille Award, the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award, and an Academy Honorary Award, as well as a Kennedy Center Honor and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
His final acting appearance came earlier this year, when he made an uncredited cameo in the Season 3 premiere of AMC’s Dark Winds, alongside fellow executive producer George R.R. Martin.
Additional TV credits early in his career included episodes of The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, Dr. Kildare, Perry Mason, The Twilight Zone and The Virginian. In 2023, he voiced investigative journalist Bob Woodward in the HBO miniseries White House Plumbers — a role he famously occupied in the 1976 Watergate thriller All the President’s Men.
Beyond All the President’s Men, Redford starred in a string of film classics, including Barefoot in the Park (1967), Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969), The Way We Were (1973), The Sting (1973), Three Days of the Condor (1975) and Out of Africa (1985). The Sting earned him his only Oscar nomination as an actor.
He was again nominated for Best Director — along with Best Picture, as a producer — for 1994’s Quiz Show.
Redford’s final big-screen role came in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, where he reprised Hydra leader Alexander Pierce — a character he originated in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
