Dirty Dancing film star Patrick Swayze has died aged 57, his publicist says.

Annett Wolf said that the US actor, who had been battling pancreatic cancer for nearly two years, died with family at his side on Monday.

Swayze was diagnosed with advanced stage four pancreatic cancer in January last year.

The actor had been starring in US TV show The Beast since being diagnosed with the disease. He had also planned to write a memoir with his wife.

"Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months," said a statement by Annett Wolf quoted by the Associated Press.

No other details were given.

Patrick Swayze was best-known for starring in Dirty Dancing and Ghost.

In January, the star admitted he might only have two years to live, but denied he was near death.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most virulent forms of cancer which medical experts say has a 5% five-year survival rate.

TMZ is really the best source for celebrity news to be honest. Say what you will about them, they get their info quick

You know.. we can build missile's that fly across the WORLD in the matter of 2 seconds, built bombs that could blow up country's but yet, can't find a cure for cancer? It's ridiculous and so sad, too many loved one's lost too early from such a relentless disease.

Lost two to breast cancer and one to lung cancer (admittedly, his fault :/) so far. It's a terrible disease and often, undiscriminating as we all know. On the bright side, my aunt caught hers early and she's 110% healthy two years later!

R.I.P. Patrick

[Behshad]

RIP Patrick. Great actor. Spooky to think if he will make an attempt to stick around for a while spiritually

[Don]

So many from that generation going these last few years.
Dan Fogelberg, Paul Davis, Dan Seals, Michael Crichton, now Swayze. Not all from cancer but all around the same age bracket.
Mortality FTW I guess.

Bums me out, never ever had a chance to see him. What a great songwriter. So much better than some of the people who get a little more credit, liek Jackson Browne (who I like as well). Dan was just in a whole other league

[ChildInTime]

R.I.P. Mr. Swayze...

[Peartree12249]

Reading about Dan Fogelberg dying a prostrate cancer is especially sad because if it is detected early there is a 99% 5 year survival rate. Guys, did you know 1 in 10 men under the age of 60 will be diagnosed with prostrate cancer during their lifetime? Please go to the doctor annually and get a simple PSA blood test. It can save your life.

[Carla777]

so sad...love his movies
Rest in peace Patrick..

In his memory..

I was really hoping he would beat the odds . Cancer is a terrible way to go. He was a strong guy.
