Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place it on a baking sheet, cut sides up.
Chop the black olives, green olives, and scallions into small pieces.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chopped black olives, green olives, scallions, mayonnaise, softened butter, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until well incorporated.
Evenly spread the olive and cheese mixture over the cut sides of the bread halves.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with slightly golden edges.
Once baked, let the bread cool slightly. Then, slice into desired portions and serve warm.
