Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers' romance is going strong.

The Newsroom star and Green Bay Packers star quarterback were first linked in May.

"It's going really great," Munn told me last night at the premiere of Mortdecai, her new comedy with Johnny Depp, Gwyneth Paltrow and Ewan McGregor. "I'm very happy. He's the best."

Aww.

While the Packers didn't make it to the Super Bowl, Munn says it's hard to be too sad about it.

"I'm just so proud of him and his team, and what I was able to see this season was unbelievable," Munn gushed. "I've never seen anything like that. The things that he's gone through this season and what he's overcome and what he does, it's really unbelievable."

Go on, Ms. Munn.

"It's definitely the sexiest thing to watch your boyfriend be that great over and over and over," she said, adding, "What Aaron does and going through, the injuries bit then coming back and dominating like he does? It's awe-inspiring."

Rodgers injured his calf not once, but twice this season. It was announced earlier this week that he was pulling out of the NFL Pro Bowl on Sunday and has been replaced by Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton.

In Mortdecai, Munn plays a woman who seduces Depp's art dealer character. Paltrow, who plays Depp's wife, calls Munn's movie alter ego "a well-known nymphomaniac."

"We're all playing such extreme characters," Munn said, adding the cast was told to "throw everything aside. Let's just make really fun big characters...There's no holding anything back. So what you see on screen is hopefully all of playing and having fun."

Mortdecai is in theaters tomorrow.
