Patrick Swayze “The Beast” A&E
It sounds like Patrick Swayze is winning his battle with a particularly deadly form of pancreatic cancer; the fifty-five year old Dirty Dancing star will return to TV as an FBI agent this Fall. A&E has greenlit an original drama series starring Swayze, The New York Times reported on Friday. A&E execs said they decided to proceed with plans for the show based on positive reports from Patrick and his doctors.
“I can’t wait to work on this,” P.S told the Times.
The Beast, which goes into production this summer, will star Patrick as “an unorthodox FBI agent with a past.”

I also read where he is winning his battle. But he is young and still must survive many years of problems and side effects.
