BREAKING NEWS – Park City, Utah – After nearly 60 years in the business, Robert Redford has announced that he is retiring from acting. The 81-year-old actor told Entertainment Weekly that his forthcoming movie, The Old Man & The Gun, will be his last. “Never say never, but I pretty well concluded that this would be it for me in terms of acting, and I’ll move towards retirement after this ’cause I’ve been doing it since I was 21,” he said. “I thought, ‘Well, that’s enough.’ I’ve aged terribly. The only roles I’ve been offered by Hollywood in the past decade, was playing a mummy, or a corpse of an exhumed body. Also, I’m sick and tired of people laughing at my toupée in public. The jokes aren’t funny, and it’s frustrating trying to convince young people that I used to be attractive.”
