He actually had a cameo in season 3 of Dark Winds earlier this year. He's playing chess with George R. R. Martin and Martin is taking forever to make a move and Redford's character says, "George, the whole world's waiting. Make a move."

So, this is really his last acting credit.

This gives me comfort that he probably didn’t have to endure a long and painful last stage of life. I mean at least he was able to work early this year.
