Gina Carano Sues Disney and Lucasfilm Over 'The Mandalorian' Firing
Actress Gina Carano is suing Disney and Lucasfilm three years after she was fired from 'The Mandalorian' for sharing insensitive social media posts
Carano alleges that Disney proceeded to begin a “post-termination smear campaign” against her as a result of not conforming to the company’s views, which included excluding her in marketing material for an episode of Running Wild with Bear Grylls. Claiming she was discriminated against for her religious beliefs and opinions on issues such as preferred pronouns and the Black Lives Matter movement, Carano accused the companies of upholding double standards. In a Tuesday statement, X’s head of business operations, Joe Benarroch, wrote that the platform was “proud to provide financial support for Gina Carano’s lawsuit, empowering her to seek vindication of her free speech rights on X and the ability to work without bullying, harassment, or discrimination.”
