Remembering Michael Clarke Duncan's Top 5 Film Roles

In memory of Michael Clarke Duncan, we remember his top five roles.

1. Green Mile - John Coffey

In his best known role, Duncan was nominated for an Academy Award for his portrayal of Coffey, an inmate on death row with extraordinary healing powers.

2. Armageddon - Bear

Orange space suited up, Duncan was part of the drilling team shot into space to save the world and was handsomely rewarded with some time in the White House.

3. Sin City - Manute

Duncan (temporarily) shed his teddy bear image by taking on the role as the sinister and intimidating one-eyed bodyguard and enforcer.

4. Kung Fun Panda - Commander Vachir

Duncan lead his deep and unforgettable voice to the 2008 animated comedy alongside Jack Black and Angelina Jolie.

5. Planet of the Apes - Attar

  Even under tons of heavy makeup and prosthetics, Duncan's signature humanity and charm was still visible.




Rest in Peace Michael Clarke Duncan, the gentle giant of the silver screen.
