God Is Good: Lead From Popular Show Highlights How Faith Has Driven His Career

Written by Published

Neal McDonough is a veteran actor who we will see in the series Rise of the Antichrist.

Hes seen a lot of success as an actor, and he has two things he attributes that success to. He believes its due to his faith in God and himself.

However, being so faithful has meant carefully navigating through Hollywood to stay true to his Catholic faith while being a successful actor. The Western Journal states, The Catholic actor who has starred in blockbuster films such as Captain America and Minority Report, as well as in the popular Paramount Network series Yellowstone has refused to do sex scenes, nor even kiss on-screen.

This allegedly led to him being fired from the hit show Scoundrels in 2010. However, he brushed that off too. According to the Western Journal, Believe in yourself, believe in yourself wholeheartedly and know that God has your back, the husband and father of five advised. Those are the tenets that we kind of live by in our house.

However, he did note that his boundaries have limited his roles. McDonough points out that hes wound up being the villain more because he wont do sex or kissing scenes. Although hes a good guy, he doesnt mind playing villains. Instead, McDonough says its a consistent reminder of how much God has blessed him. He also pointed out that seeing the villains point of view is interesting.

His latest project, Rise of the Antichrist, is set six months after the rapture happens to the world. The rapture is described vividly in the book of Revelations.

Some believe it will come in stages, while others think it will happen when Christ returns. Biblical scholars continually remain divided on the narrative. Until that time comes, we can expect this astounding actor to continue to stay true to himself and his Catholic faith.
