CBS has pulled the plug on its freshman drama series A GIFTED MAN starring Broadway star Patrick Wilson. Sharing the news, Wilson posted on Twitter, "So...shocking to no one: #agiftedman is done. Found out via email...and not from the network. Stay classy. Thanks to AGM fans! Great cast/crew!" He later added, "Thanks for the AGM love...but now that it's "official," I couldn't be happier. As good as it was(sometimes) it was not what I signed on for."

Wilson received back-to-back Tony nominations in 2001's THE FULL MONTY followed by 2002's revival of OKLAHOMA. His most recent Broadway appearance was in ALL MY SONS in 2008.

He has also received an Emmy and Golden Globe nomination for HBO's adaptation of ANGELS IN AMERICA and also starred in the film adaptation of WATCHMEN in addition to having a lengthy list of film credits to his name.
