While in California, Zilly also appeared in five movies, the best-known being Twelve O'Clock High.

On January 8, 1978, Zilly coached the American team to a 22–7 victory over Canada in the first-ever Can-Am Bowl, at Tampa Stadium. His 1978 team consisted of future University of South Florida head coach Jim Leavitt and future Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Washington Redskins general manager, Bruce Allen. After leaving football, Zilly owned and ran a successful real-estate company until his retirement. Zilly died on December 18, 2009 in Narragansett, Rhode Island.
