Thomas Gibson, who plays Aaron “Hotch” Hotchner on Criminal Minds, has been suspended for at least one episode this season after kicking a producer in the leg during an argument.
Deadline reports that Gibson will also no longer direct any episodes of Criminal Minds this season (he was reportedly directing the scene when the altercation occurred) and Hotch will be written out during Gibson’s suspension.
Criminal Minds kicks off Season 12 on Wednesday, Sept. 28 at 9/8c on CBS.
His future status on the show is under review by CBS and ABC Studios’ human resources departments.
