Suits star Neal McDonough was fired from a show in 2010 for refusing to do a kissing sex scene due to his Catholic faith and commitment to his wife, leading to a two-year career hiatus and loss of his home. The actor's career rebounded after being cast in Justified, and he has since appeared in various TV shows and movies. McDonough's refusal to film intimate scenes has been attributed to his religious beliefs and dedication to his family.
