I think Australian audiences will remember him best from the movie Cocoon and that drama (Our House?) he did with Deidre Hall in the 1980s that Seven screened in a prominent timeslot. I’m shocked he isn’t a lot older than that considering he was making a career out of playing old timers 30 years ago.

Sumner Redstone, a towering industry figure who turned a regional chain of movie theaters into a business empire that included Viacom, Paramount Pictures and CBS, has died at the age of 97.
National Amusements, the controlling shareholder of ViacomCBS, confirmed the news Wednesday morning.
“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Sumner M. Redstone, the self-made businessman, philanthropist and World War II veteran who built one of the largest collections of media assets in the world,” the company said in a statement.
Full statement from National Amusements:
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Sumner M. Redstone, the self-made businessman, philanthropist and World War II veteran who built one of the largest collections of media assets in the world. He passed away yesterday at the age of 97.
Over the course of his distinguished life and career, Sumner played a critical role in shaping the landscape of the modern media and entertainment industry. At National Amusements, he transformed a regional theater chain into a world leader in the motion picture exhibition industry. Sumner was also a keen investor who took stakes in a variety of companies, including Viacom Inc. and CBS Corporation – today merged as ViacomCBS – which he built into prominent, international and industry-leading conglomerates in the media industry.
Sumner was a man of unrivaled passion and perseverance, who devoted his life to his belief in the power of content. With his passing, the media industry he loved so dearly loses one of its great champions. Sumner, a loving father, grandfather and great-grandfather, will be greatly missed by his family who take comfort knowing that his legacy will live on for generations to come.
