Unless you’re a fan of MMA or Steven Soderbergh’s not-so-great films, you may not have been aware of who Gina Carano is before her appearance as Cara Dune on “The Mandalorian.” However, over the first two seasons of the “Star Wars” spinoff, Carano became a lightning rod for controversy on social media where fans saw that the actress shared some politically-charged, transphobic, anti-Semitic, and conspiracy theory-laden messages.

If you would have asked a “Star Wars” fan a few years ago what Obi-Wan Kenobi did between ‘Revenge of the Sith’ and ‘A New Hope,’ the answer would have been that he was guarding over Luke and making sure he was okay during his childhood. For years, it’s just been assumed that Obi-Wan became a defacto monk for decades between the trilogies.

When you see an actor like Tom Holland secure A-list status at a young age, you have to assume it all came really quickly. Clearly, he didn’t spend two decades toiling away at auditions and bit roles before landing the career-defining role.

The ongoing fallout of the Gina Carano story continues. Fired from “The Mandalorian” series by Lucasfilm — following months of problematic social media posts and a controversial, straw-that-broke-the-camels-back post that many viewed as anti-Semitic — THR has an interesting behind the scenes look at her dismissal from the hit series, following the news that she learned of her firing through social media.

The Mandalorian season two was pulled after she refused to post a studio-written apology following claims she mocked transgender people.The actor, who played Cara Dune in the Star Wars Disney+ show, was fired from the show last week following a post she shared that compared the current divided political climate in the US to Nazi Germany.Last year, Carano was accused of mocking transgender pronouns by putting “Beep/bop/boop” in her profile bio.

More than three years ago, Lucasfilm quickly announced that Rian Johnson, the writer-director of “Star Wars: The Last Jedi,” was set to write and direct a new trilogy of non-Skywalker films that would eventually be released by the studio. It was huge news because, at that time, ‘The Last Jedi’ had yet to be released and everyone was eagerly anticipating what Johnson had in store for fans with his first ‘Star Wars’ film.

To borrow a phrase, Gina Carano f*cked around and found out. Last week “The Mandalorian” actress was fired from the Lucasfilm TV series after some controversial social media remarks which many found anti-Semitic (she compared the persecution of the Jews by the Nazis as not much different for hating right-wingers for their conservative values, which is an appalling false equivalency and bankrupt victimization).

Saturday Night Live has addressed the firing of Gina Carano from The Mandalorian after the actress shared controversial and offensive posts on social media.The Cara Dune star’s posts, which compared criticism of a person’s political beliefs to the persecution of Jews in Nazi Germany, were described as “abhorrent and unacceptable” by Disney, with the studio confirming she was no longer employed by Lucasfilm.SNL‘s Weekend Update segment has now tackled the controversy, questioning whether Star

Unless you’ve been living under a rock (or if you don’t give a shit about “Star Wars” and/or political drama), you’re probably aware that Gina Carano was let go from her contract with Lucasfilm, and thus, no longer a part of the cast of “The Mandalorian,” after her latest controversial tweets got her in even more hot water.
