If you've ever seen The Green Mile he's the guy on death row who looks like he's about 8 feet tall when he first comes walking in.

Very sad, I hope he knew the Lord Jesus as his personal savior. I enjoyed his work, especially Armageddon and The Island.

Great actor. RIP. Bet he was really great in real life. 5 years younger than me, too young to die.

To the best of my knowledge, he knew the Lord.

He was one of the good guys in Hollywood. One of the few real role models for young men.

I always liked him as an actor and he was reportedly a gentle giant in real life. I will miss him. Prayers up for his family.

That is wonderful news. Although it is sad to see him gone home to be with the Lord so young, at least he is with the Lord Jesus and not in hell.

The Green Mile is chock full of symbolism. John Coffey, "J.C." heals people, watches the "picture show" with the projector lamp behind him like a halo, singing "I'm in Heaven...", leaves behind followers like the Tom Hanks character "Paul" who tells his story to everyone he meets, etc.

Strange coming from Stephen King, who is pretty upfront about his distaste for "Christians".

His characters always seemed genuine. I would like to believe there was more than a little of his true “self” coming through.
