Just in case you were wondering, Olivia Munn is not a pill on-set, despite the rumors.

The Magic Mike actress has scoffed at the recent whispers stating that she has a ā€œknow-it-all attitudeā€ and is ā€œoversteppingā€ her boundaries on her most recent gig, The Newsroom. And so has its creator Aaron Sorkin.

ā€œThe story bears no resemblance to reality,ā€ stated Sorkin in a report. ā€œOlivia is a perfect cast member who is loved and respected by the entire cast, by the crew and the producers, by HBO, and especially by me.ā€

This is a far cry from what the scathing report stated, including that Munn was acting more like Sorkin’s co-writer instead of an actress, and was even causing waves with the show’s star, Jeff Daniels.

ā€œOlivia and Aaron’s relationship soured so completely during season two ofĀ  The NewsroomĀ that it created a poisonous atmosphere on the set,ā€ said the source.

Like most celebs, Munn took to Twitter to defend herself:

Some are wondering if this recent gossip is just a ploy to create a buzz for the upcoming season three of the show. As you may recall, it ended quite a while ago, and perhaps this is a way to get people thinking of the show again. Featuring some seriously zany story lines, such as a doll coming to life, an elderly witch, and an orangutan nurse, such a twist wouldn’t be that unheard of.

Munn has been on the show since 2012, and plays Sloan Sabbith, a socially awkward senior financial reporter for News Night.
