"He wanted to ruin my chances of getting anything else,” the actor alleged of a director she worked with on the series "The Newsroom."
Olivia Munn is claiming a director on the series “The Newsroom” tried to derail her career.
In a new episode of the “Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard” podcast, the actor alleged that things got tense between her and one of the show’s male directors after the pair were at odds over her character, Sloan Sabbith, on the drama show.
“There was one director who came in multiple times,” Munn said during Monday’s episode. “And there was a storyline where my character and Tom Sadoski’s character [Don Keefer] are dating and falling in love. He kept trying to force me to carry that storyline only on my side.”
The former TV host alleged that she clashed with the unnamed director after they both had different ideas of how her character should interact with Sadoski’s character.
“He’s like, ‘Can you, like, look out at him and smile?’ And I’m like, ‘Why? She’s busy doing this.’ Or, ‘Can you, like, stop and snuggle up to him or flirt with him?’ Or, ‘Can you give him a kiss?’ And I’m like, ‘This is in the middle of working,’” Munn recalled.
