Olivia Munn Calls Out ‘Obnoxious’ Co-Star’s On-Set Power Play

Olivia Munn just revealed that a male co-star straight-up refused to film a crucial scene — and his reason is absolutely wild. Right before cameras rolled, he nixed a moment where his character would be saved by a woman. Yeah, you read that right.

The \”Newsroom\” and \”X-Men: Apocalypse\” star didn’t hold back calling him out for being \”obnoxious\” about the whole thing. Apparently, dude had a major ego problem with the idea of a female character getting the upper hand, even for a second.

Munn has dealt with her share of on-set drama — from \”The Newsroom\” to \”The Predator\” — but this one clearly stuck with her. The fact that he killed the scene entirely instead of just, you know, acting like a professional? That’s the kind of petty Hollywood move that makes everyone else’s eyes roll into oblivion.

We’re not naming names here, but Munn made her point crystal clear. Some people really can’t handle a woman getting the hero moment.
