...Hook. John, now an ex-Senator, is asked to portray his late father in Sting II, the follow-up to the 1973 original, The Sting. It stars Jackie Gleason, 65, and Mac Davis, 40, in the snap-brim, wing-tipped, confidence-man roles created by Paul Newman and Robert Redford. The Cameo. Playing papa in retirement, John's scene calls for him to grin as he is introduced in a crowded fight arena. The Fade-Out.
