14 years after launching her career on the G4 network’s flagship series Attack of the Show, Olivia Munn is reportedly returning home.
The 40-year-old brunette beauty who would go from being a popular host and interviewer on Attack of the Show to launch a successful acting career, is in final talks to return to G4 in a multi-year deal, according to The Wrap.
