Redford told the magazine:
"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. I thought, Well, that's enough. And why not go out with something that's very upbeat and positive?"
Redford plays Forrest Tucker, a real-life bank robber in "Old Man and the Gun."
Fox Searchlight is set to release the film also starring Danny Glover, Casey Affleck and Sissy Spacek, on Oct. 5.
The former Liberty Savings Bank section of Liberty Tower — an art deco high-rise at 120 W. Second St. — was also used for the film.
