Via Twitter she shared a note that read, "1 in 8 women get breast cancer. Today, I'm the one. The good news is that I have the most glorious group of supportive and caring family and friends, and fantastic insurance through my union. The bad news is that not all women are so lucky, so let's fight all cancers and make universal health care a reality."
The actress received the diagnosis a day after winning the Emmy Award for "Best Actress in a Comedy" on September 17.
More from The Hollywood Reporter:
According to HBO, the diagnosis had no bearing in the decision to renew Veep for its final season. HBO will adjust the show's production schedule as needed.
"Our love and support go out to Julia and her family at this time," the network said in a statement to THR. "We have every confidence she will get through this with her usual tenacity and undaunted spirit, and look forward to her return to health and to HBO for the final season of Veep."
The award-winning comedy series will come to an end in 2018 with its seventh season. "We don't want to repeat ourselves or wear out our welcome. The story has a finality to it that feels end-of-series," the actress previously told THR. "I struggled with it. And then it just hit me. It's hard to say goodbye to such a good thing."
