LOS ANGELES (AP) — Michael Clarke Duncan's life will be celebrated with a public casket viewing and a private service next week.

Duncan spokeswoman Joy Fehily said Wednesday that the Oscar-nominated actor's casket will be on view from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday at the Hall of Liberty at Forest Lawn Memorial Parks and Mortuaries in Los Angeles. A private, invitation-only service will follow on Monday.

"The Green Mile" star died Monday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after failing to recover from a heart attack in July. He was 54.
