'Yellowstone' actor says Hollywood turned on him for refusing to kiss co-stars, says 'Don't want to put my kids...'
McDonough, who was cast as Wolfgang West opposite Virginia Madsen and Patrick Flueger, was reportedly fired three days into production on "Scoundrels." Neal McDonough, who starred in 'Yellowstone' and Suits' has revealed he was shut out of Hollywood for refusing to kiss anyone other than his wife, Ruvé McDonough, for his projects. McDonough opened up about how Hollywood shut him out after he refused to film kissing scenes on an episode of Tim Green's 'Nothing Left Unsaid' podcast, released Wednesday."I always had in my contracts that I wouldn't kiss another woman on screen," McDonough said. "My wife didn't have any problem with it. It was me, really, who had a problem. I was like, 'Yeah, I don't want to put you through it. I know we're going to start having kids, and I don't want to put my kids through it."Instead, the actor said that he decided to pursue a career as a frequent villain so that he was able to accept roles that didn't require romantic moments. Despite his plan, Neal said that the rule ultimately "got him blacklisted" and left Hollywood confused about what to do with him.

Check key date, eligibility and more Neal McDonough opened up about his rocky experience in the entertainment industry due to his longstanding refusal to perform intimate scenes with his female costars. "Sometimes you need to be crucified in life to realize what life is really about," said McDonough, who is a devout Catholic. "It's about family. It's about God. It's about what you can do to make the world a better place while you're here for that finite amount of time." "A lot of people say, 'Well, you kill thousands of people in all of your movies, sometimes millions, and you won't kiss another woman onscreen?' I'm like, 'Yeah, but you're not really killing anybody,'" he said. "And it's kind of funny on the day when we're doing it. But intimacy is a whole different thing for me." McDonough — a veteran character actor known for his roles in Yellowstone, Band of Brothers, Arrow, Suits, Desperate Housewives, and more — said it wasn't long before he ran into trouble over his 'no kissing' rule. "When I wouldn't do it, and they couldn't understand it, Hollywood just completely turned on me," he said. "They wouldn't let me be part of the show anymore. And for two years, I couldn't get a job, and I lost everything you could possibly imagine. Not just houses and material things, but your swagger, your cool, who you are, your identity, everything."

He claims that, at one point, he was fired from a TV show after declining to shoot an intimate scene."They came to my trailer and the wardrobe lady says, 'Excuse me, would you like to be wearing a sock for the scene?'" McDonough recalled. "I remember, I said, 'I'm from Cape Cod and I don't wear socks. I've never worn socks. I'm a loafer and no socks guy.' She's like, 'What?' And she closed the door and she walks away."The actor said a producer arrived a few minutes later to clarify that they needed him to wear a modesty sock for a simulated sex scene. McDonough immediately pushed back, leading to an ultimatum: "They said, 'Well, unless you do it, we're gonna have to replace you,'" he recalled. "I'm like, 'Well, then replace me because I'm not gonna do it.' And they fired me." ALSO READ: PayPal and Venmo down in US?

I'd have a better chance of surviving in that desert than surviving when I land in Hollywood.' And I was right."According to McDonough, the fallout included a rough patch in his career in addition to "a very painful, costly ordeal" caused by the show suing the actor maintains that he would do it all again. "I knew I did the right thing for my marriage," he said in the interview. "I knew I did the right thing for [God]. And I knew I did the right thing for me."McDonough, who was cast as Wolfgang West opposite Virginia Madsen and Patrick Flueger, was reportedly fired three days into production on "Scoundrels."

Centered on a former bull rider staging a comeback, the role required several onscreen kisses. To keep things simple (and close to home), McDonough cast his real-life wife as his love interest."Well, my wife is really hot. She is a good-looking woman, and everything else can pale as compared to my wife, Ruvé," he joked, before explaining, "It was financed. It was ready to go and I said, 'I am not doing the movie unless you play my wife. Because I am not going to kiss some other woman on screen.' And she's like, 'Well, I am not an actor.' I'm like, 'Well, you are now. So let's go.'"
