Olivia Munn becomes sincere about what changed to her on the set after double mastectomy
Olivia Munn became vulnerable about the filming of sex scenes after being diagnosed with breast cancer and undergoing double mastectomy.
The actor stars alongside Jon Hamm in the new Apple TV+ “Your Friends and Neighbors” program. Munn plays his adventure partner in the series, which means that the two had to film some intimate scenes together.
“The dynamic between my character and the character of Jon Hamm is a very sexual dynamic,” Munn shared in an interview with Extra! on Tuesday at the premiere of New York City of the program. “Therefore, it is really important that we are showing that, and I wanted to be realistic and credible and leave it, as, nothing hidden.”
“But I was nervous because I have scars. I have scars of my double mastectomy,” he shared. “I have scars of dissection of lymph nodes, I have scars of having an oophorectomy/hysterectomy.”
Given the amount of procedures he has had, Munn said that his scars are “not only as, in a small place here and there.”
But after talking to Hamm, the creator of the Jonathan Tropper series and the program of intimacy of the program, Munn was done.

“I realized that I was more insecure before having double mastectomy,” Munn shared, adding that I was “so proud of my body to overcome me.”
Munn’s scars are not visible in the series, since he said he would not make sense, since his character has no breast cancer.
But she has shown the scars before in an Skims campaign that waves last year. The 44 -year -old man told Extra! Filming obtained a response from all kinds of people.

“Not only other women who have the same scars, but I have met daughters and sons of, you know, mothers who have it and say that they look at the scars of their mothers differently now,” he said, and added that he no longer “feels insecure about my scars like that.”
Munn previously opened at the time he decided to have “finished” being insecure with his scars while filming the Skims campaign.
“I was looking in the mirror and I thought: ‘I’ve finished being insecure about my scars,” Munn said in an interview with NBC’s “Today” program last year. “So I went to the Skims team and said: ‘What do you think of showing my scars in this campaign?’ And they were so amazing, attentive and wonderful.
