Notable figures paid tribute to Robert Redford shortly after the iconic actor and director’s death was announced on Tuesday.
“Robert Redford passed away on September 16, 2025, at his home at Sundance in the mountains of Utah ― the place he loved, surrounded by those he loved,” his publicist, Cindi Berger, said in a statement shared with HuffPost.
“He will be missed greatly,” Berger said, adding that “the family requests privacy.”
The “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” actor was 89 at his time of his death. The New York Times was the first to report the news.
Redford spoke about his desire to become an actor in a candid interview with Collider in 2019, telling the publication that “the idea of being an actor was to have a sense of freedom.”
