Robert Redford: I haven’t retired

Robert Redford hasn’t quit Hollywood. The acting legend is keen to let movie bosses know he’s still an actor for hire, because he fears many casting chiefs think he’s retired.

“I say, ‘Hey, I’d like to be in that movie,’ and they say, ‘Would you? You’re kidding’,” Redford said.

“Something is happening over the years that makes a lot of people think that I don’t do this anymore, when the truth is, it’s what I enjoy most.”

Robert — who tied the knot with German-born artist Sibylle Szaggars, 55, two years ago — recently revealed his second wife has given him a “whole new life”.

“She’s a very special person. She’s younger than I am and European, which I like, so that’s a whole new life,” he said.

“I ride horses, ski, play pretty hard tennis. I still have energy. When that starts to shut down, I might start to think about age.”
