Hollywood actor Neal McDonough is taking a stand for family values and his Catholic convictions.

The former star of the popular TV series "Desperate Housewives" has been replaced on ABC's new series "Scoundrels" after refusing to do sex scenes.

ABC called it a casting change, but other reports claim McDonough was fired.

Throughout his acting career, McDonough has made it clear that he will not be in sexual situations.

He will reportedly lose as much as $1 million for refusing this latest role.
