Robert Redford’s Blink-and-You’ll-Miss-It Miniseries Cameo Is a Clever Callback to His Iconic Thriller

Following the news of Robert Redford’s death, many have been paying tribute to a career that lasted more than 60 years, from Butch Cassidyand theSundance Kid to Ordinary People, which earned him an Oscar. However, one of Redford’s last appearances was a cameo in the 2023 HBO miniseries White House Plumbers. The political satire about the Watergate scandal featured Redford in this role, and it was a fitting role for Redford: He played journalist Bob Woodward, a role made famous nearly 50 years ago when he starred in All The President’s Men.
