LOS ANGELES—
Michael Clarke Duncan's fiancee says the Oscar nominee for "The Green Mile" has died while being hospitalized following a July heart attack.

Publicist Joy Fehily released a statement from Clarke's fiancée, the Rev. Omarosa Manigault, saying the 54-year-old actor died Monday morning in a Los Angeles hospital after nearly two months of treatment following the July 13 heart attack.

The 6-foot-5, 300 pound Duncan appeared in dozens of films, including such box office hits as "Armageddon," ''Planet of the Apes" and "Kung Fu Panda."

Duncan had a handful of minor roles before "The Green Mile" brought him an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor. The 1999 film, based on the Stephen King novel of the same name, starred Tom Hanks as a corrections officer at a penitentiary in the 1930s. Duncan played John Coffey, a convicted murderer.

 Michael was a pretty good character actor. Of course everyone mainly knows him from The Green Mile, but there were some other great movies and TV shows that he appeared in. For instance, he played the Kingpin in Daredevil and actually pulled it off pretty well. Then there's also his role of Leo Knox in The Finder. All around, a class act that I'll miss.

'Ello, lad!
 Such a great actor. His intimidating deep-pitched voice always made a movie a hot title. It's sad to hear that he died. I'd say one of the best supporting actors a movie can get.
