Neal McDonough believes that Hollywood has turned his back on him for a long period, because he did not want to kiss his counterparts on camera. “I lost everything you can imagine,” says the 59-year-old actor in the Podcast Nothing Left UNAID .
McDonough has been married to film producer and actress Ruvé Robertson since 2003 and has her five children. “I always had it in my contract that I didn’t want to kiss another woman on camera. My wife had no problem with it. I was the one who had a problem with it.”
The actor refused the scenes because of his faith and out of respect for his wife and children. “Because I couldn’t do it and because Hollywood didn’t understand, the industry turned against me.”
The American said he was no longer offered roles for two years and therefore lost a lot. “Not only houses and material things, but also my self -confidence and my identity. My identity was that of an actor, a very good one. When you no longer have it, you will be dragged a bit in a downward spiral.”
The actor does not tell what period in his career it is. In recent years he has often been seen as a bad guy in films and series.
McDonough is known for films such as Minority Report and Gone Baby Gone . He also played in series such as Suits , Band of Brothers , Desperate Housewives, Yellowstone and Tulsa King .
