On July 13, 2012, Duncan was sent to the hospital after suffering from a heart attack.It was reported that his girlfriend, Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, potentially saved his life by performing CPR before he was transported to the hospital. Duncan's publicist Joy Fehily said in a statement on August 6, 2012 that he was moved from the intensive care unit but remained hospitalized following his July 13 heart attack. On September 3, Duncan's fiancée said he had died that morning in a Los Angeles Hospital R.I.P John Coffey ;-(
This is the big dude from Green Mile right? I'd watch the film in his memory but the film makes me cry ;'(
So sad...I remember seeing him too in a Two and Half Men episode...great actor and from what I heard a great guy in real life.
Haha, it's not always me that posts them! It was a shock to hear he died at such an early age. He'd been in some decent films, too. The Green Mile is very often in people's top ten movie lists, in fact! Nice articles are popping up about him: http://edition.cnn.com/2012/09/03/showbiz/michael-clarke-duncan/index.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbi...owing-months-treatment-July-heart-attack.html RIP Michael - thanks for some great films!
I don't recall seeing the Green Mile and I can think of better things to do than watch Two and a Half Men, such as being repeatedly hit in the face with a brick, but I was surprised when I saw DareDevil in the cinema and there was a black Kingpin, who is normally depected as a white guy. Say what you like about DareDevil, but Michael Clarke Duncan more than had the muscle mass to play The Kingpin andhe did a good job of it too. If he got his muscle mass form steroids an early death is probably to be expected, but it a shame regardless.
