Disney made the decision to cut this lady loose a while back https://movieweb.com/gina-carano-fired-months-ago-star-wars/?fbclid=IwAR1a9jANRu8BLuKKPqhrQq8Kc4h8T-t_MRK1Z81qOOypCfDdn9QauirN-78

The trending news of this Wednesday night was Lucasfilm firing actress Gina Carano from not only The Mandalorian but also effectively ending the chances of her appearance in future Star Wars projects. The step was taken after she posted several controversial social media posts that garnered a severe backlash, prompting Lucasfilm to severe ties with her as they found them "abhorrent and unacceptable". But as per a recent report, Carano didn't just lose her role as Cara Dune in the hit Disney+ series but also the opportunity to lead a Star Wars series, most likely the recently announced Rangers of the New Republic, which was in the pipeline before she got all tangled in controversies.

Since November 2020, former MMA fighter Gina Carano has been attracting social media ire through her controversial posts that started with her mocking the need for wearing masks amidst the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, transphobic tweets, followed by her spreading the false news that voter fraud has occurred during the recently held presidential elections. #FireGinaCarano has been trending for a long time as fans of The Mandalorian constantly sought her removal from the series as her contentious posts continued.

5. Just stop for a second WB and ask yourself _ what's the dumbest thing you could imagine here?

I mean really dumb.

11. They're on the attack with Pascal

Some of his conservative fans thought he should denounce his sister after her announcement of transitioning. They were upset with that and that he made a public announcement of love in Spanish, which they also didn't like.

14. TBH, I have not seen a single episode of Mandilorian...

I was just adding some snark.

7. They always whine loudest when Hollywood acts exactly like they think Capitalism should

They always argue how the people paying the bills have the right to fire anyone for any reason they see fit, except they complain when it happens to "their guys."

And they like to pretend it's ideological persecution, not either a business decision (*cough*Tim Allen*cough*) or maybe just being too big a pain in the neck to work with.

Hollywood will overlook just about anything if you bring in enough money, but if you don't, there are lots of things that can get you the "hot potato" treatment.

12. But she didn't make Star Wars fun.

Grogu did that.

13. Definitely

It has been a very well made series but without Grogu it would just be a Star Wars only thing.
It’s, to my eye, the most “western” of all the Star Wars products which all stem from New Hope which is a space based western.

15. It's all about Grogu and how well Pedro Pascal

Has done with his performance. Acting with a puppet can be hard but he's done a great job making it totally believable. He sells his role and he's also great with fan interaction on social media.

9. As a MOT, I am glad that this asshole was fired

I love the Mandalorian but I can live without her in future episodes.

10. Not a smart lady.
