RIP Michael Clark Duncan

Post Reply New Topic

The sad news is in - - the gentle giant Michael Clark Duncan has passed away. He had never recovered entirely from the heart attack he had suffered months ago. Farewell to a big man who made his mark in movies not only for his physical size, but also for his acting ability.

If I was a crying man I'd cry. It is heartbreaking, though. I really did think he was very believable. He was also unique, not just some generic fly by night, Central Casting lookalike.

He looked like he possibly did a lot of anabolic steroids over the years which is probably related to him dying young since the heart is a muscle after all. I remember reading an interview in which he hinted that he could bench press over 600 lbs.

R.I.P., Mr. Duncan, you were respected and admired......

Oh no :'(
I liked him.

Good thing The Finder was cancelled before he died. It would have been cancelled after he died.

Duncan was marvelous in -The Green Mile-.

a new big star in the heavenly firmament.

He finally "rolled on two", I guess.

RIP big man.

Damn. Sad news indeed. Loss for words here. Definitely one of my favourite performers of the last decade. Gone far too soon.

how tragic.

I will always remember him for The Green Mile and for his work as a video game voice actor (he did voice work in games like Saints Row and others).
