Holy crap, this is a big one. RT @AP BREAKING: "Green Mile" actor Michael Clarke Duncan dead at 54, his fiancée says.

****ing Omarosa.

RIP to one of my favorites. Loved him in everything I saw him in, and he really was larger than life in person.

Omarosa of The Apprentice fame? She would bring early death to any man involved with her.

RIP.

"Green Mile" was the first motion picture I remember him in.

He had been in hospital since July 13 after a heart attack that was reported earlier. May be a thread on it here somewhere.

I could have sworn it was a stroke, but yeah.

RIP John Coffey.

Clarke. Kind of like the Kevin Smith franchise. Only spelt different.

RIP.

That truly blows. He was a great actor. I never met him, but from most interviews I saw he was a nice enough fellow, too.

RIP

Dammit. Now he'll never get to spend the summer in the Lincoln Bedroom.
RIP

Like IJAG, I first saw him in "The Green Mile," and like everything else in the movie, he was fantastic. Loved him in everything I saw him in since. Too bad. And I didn't know he had the heart problem over the last month.

RIP

One of his last appearances had to have been with Craig Ferguson - Craig liked him enough to bring him on a trip to Scotland, where they toured his old house:

There are a couple other great clips from that week of shows online. RIP - He definitely seemed like the embodiment of the Gentle Giant.

 

[Smallpotatoes]

Loved him in the Slammin' Salmon.

And just after I heard about this I went to the gym and on one of the TVs there, I see MCD in one of his guest shots on "Two and a Half Men." Man, makes me even sadder.

 

[spikechiquet]

Wow, he was just in Scotland with Craig Ferguson a few weeks before his heart attack.

Can't believe he was engaged to Omarosa. WTF?

 

[Beaker]

Aw man, that sucks. Amazing of course in The Green Mile. RIP.

He's also part of one of my favorite Family Guy cutaways.
