MICHAEL CLARKE DUNCAN DIES 2 MONTHS AFTER HIS HEART ATTACK!

Actor Michael Clarke Duncan, the miraculous mountain of muscle in the Oscar-nominated film "The Green Mile," died Monday in Los Angeles after a massive heart attack in July.

The hulking 6-foot-5, 325-pound movie star passed away early in the day at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at age 54, his rep confirmed to the Daily News.

“(He) suffered a myocardial infarction on July 13 and never fully recovered,” the rep said.

His fiancée, Omarosa Manigault, a reality TV star and Baptist minister, performed CPR on Duncan when she found him unresponsive the morning he entered the hospital seven weeks ago, a source told The News.

Duncan left the intensive care unit in early August but remained hospitalized.

“Manigault is grateful for all of your prayers and asks for privacy at this time,” Duncan’s rep said, adding that public and private memorials would be announced soon.

“I'll miss you, my brother,” actor Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson, Duncan’s co-star in 2002 flick “The Scorpion King,” wrote on Twitter.

Duncan previously worked as a bodyguard for Will Smith and Jamie Foxx and was hired to protect Brooklyn rapper Christopher (Notorious B.I.G) Wallace the night Wallace was murdered in Los Angeles.

He swapped the assignment with a friend and quit security within hours of Wallace’s 1997 death.

Duncan pursued acting full-time after that and scored an Oscar nomination for “The Green Mile.” He also appeared in “Armageddon,” “The Whole Nine Yards” and “Sin City.”

Last May, he spoke publicly about seeking a healthier lifestyle.

"Being a vegetarian was the best life choice I've ever made all natural, all organic!" he wrote on Twitter.
