Robert Redford is not too pleased. This week, the 74-year-old iconic actor and founder of the Sundance Film Festival lamented that no one asks him to be in movies anymore.

He told ABC News Now's "Popcorn With Peter Travers:" "I ask the question -- I say, 'Hey I'd like to be [in that movie]' and they say, 'Would you? You're kidding.' And I say 'No.'"

He added, "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."

While there have been reports that Redford might reprise his role as Hubbell opposite Barbara Streisand's Katie in a remake of "The Way We Were," he dismissed the rumors, saying "maybe that's Barbara out there talking about it." Instead, Redford said he's focusing on stories that have yet to be told. He'll take on a major role in a Jackie Robinson bio-pic and star in a film adaptation of Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods," about a travel writer who attempts to walk The Appalachian Trail.

Mr. Redford,

I hope you see this letter, but if you are STILL around in the next 5-10 years I'll try to have you in one of my films, it may be the first owner of The Cleveland Steamers in "Roller-Blade Football", it may be Ted's Grandpa in a movie I call "Ted", or it may be the old-time wrangler in "The Fabulous Corral".

MrC

the new breed of hollywood may just not want do deal with mr redford;s ego wich from everything ive read is as big as the apartment building that i live in and the one next door i personally like robert redford myself though

Dear Mr. Redford,

Why not take a page from Clint Eastwood's book and transition your career into directing and producing. That way you can cast yourself whenever there's a role you like in one of your movies. I think you will find that that will be much more affective than bitching and moaning about other people refusing to cast you.

Sincerely, Marvo301

Maybe he's just too old to cast in most roles? Or nobody wants to work with him?

Most actors his age are blackballed. There's just not that many roles being written for people his age, and when a few come around, they normally go to the same people.
