CBS suspends Criminal Minds actor kicking the show’s writer.
CBS decided to suspend Thomas Gibson, an actor and director from the hit TV series Criminal Minds. According to reports, Gibson kicked a writer in the leg.
According to TheWrap, Gibson, who was also directing the episode, was suspended for two episodes. From TheWrap:
“There were creative differences on the set and a disagreement,” the actor told us in a statement. “I regret that it occurred. We all want to work together as a team to make the best show possible. We always have and always will.”
A source told TheWrap that there were no injuries or bruising. However, it’ s important to point out that Criminal Minds has had their fair share of controversy this year. Just a few weeks ago, the show’s casting director was let go after a scathing report revealed how casting directors charged actors for “acting workshops”, which were reportedly illegal and against the Los Angeles Krevorkian Act.
I guess fiction imitates reality, especially on set of Criminal Minds.
