The answer to this question depends on what you mean by "meet." If you're asking if Red and Andy ever shared the screen in a scene together, then no, they did not. Red, played by James Whitmore, was the warden of Shawshank prison in the 1940s, while Andy Dufresne, played by Tim Robbins, arrived in the 1970s.
However, Red and Andy did have a significant impact on each other's lives, even though they were separated by decades. Red was a key figure in Andy's story, offering support, guidance, and even helping him escape from Shawshank. Andy, in turn, inspired Red to change his own life and find hope even in the darkest of circumstances.
While they may not have met face-to-face, their connection is a central theme of the film, highlighting the power of hope, friendship, and resilience even in the face of adversity.
