Aaron Hotchner will be going MIA. I’ve learned thatCriminal Minds star Thomas Gibson has been suspended for at least one and likely two episodes after a physical altercation with a producer on the set of the CBS crime drama. (I hear the incident involved Thomas kicking the producer).
In addition to Gbson’s immediate suspension from acting on the ABC Studios/CBS TV Studios-produced show — now believed to be filming episodes 3 and 4 – I hear his Season 12 directing stint on Criminal Minds also was nixed following the incident. (Gibson has directed 6 episodes of Criminal Minds so far.) I hear Gibson has been written off the episodes during the suspension, and production on the show continues.
I hear the matter is being handled by Human Resources, with Gibson’s future status on the show under review. Deadline reached out to ABC Studios and CBS for comment earlier on Wednesday.
Gibson is an original Criminal Minds cast member, playing Special Agent Aaron Hotchner since the series’ 2005 debut.
Criminal Minds returns for Season 12 on September 28.
