Olivia Munn, star of "X-Men: The Apocalypse" and the HBO series “The Newsroom,” revealed in a lengthy post to Instagram on Wednesday that she underwent a double mastectomy after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer last year.
Sharing her story in the hope that "it will help others find comfort, inspiration and support on their own journey," Munn gives thanks to her husband, comedian John Mulaney, with whom she shares a 2-year-old son, crediting him for doing independent research on the four surgeries she's had in the past ten months, as well as her medications, to get a better understanding of their recovery time and side effects.
