Michael Clarke Duncan RIP

[mike honcho]

Michael Clarke Duncan, the hulking, prolific character actor whose dozens of films included an Oscar-nominated performance as a death row inmate in "The Green Mile" and such other box office hits as "Armageddon," ''Planet of the Apes" and "Kung Fu Panda," is dead at age 54.
Clarke died Monday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where he was being treated for a heart attack, said his fiancée, Reverend Omarosa Manigault, in a statement released by publicist Joy Fehily.
The muscular, 6-foot-4 Duncan, a former bodyguard who turned to acting in his 30s, "suffered a myocardial infarction on July 13 and never fully recovered," the statement said. "Manigault is grateful for all of your prayers and asks for privacy at this time. Celebrations of his life, both private and public, will be announced at a later date."

Great actor, never seemed like he played the main person in any film but he always was really good as a supporting charecter.

I never saw the Green Mile, although I do plan to see it eventually. But, I have seen him in a few films over the years. It's sad that people who are that big tend to have heart failure at an early age. They just can't seem to support that big of a system. It happens with basketball players and other athletes as well.
