Gina Carano’s lawsuit against The Walt Disney Company and its subsidiary Lucasfilm lives to see another day.
A federal judge has denied Disney’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit filed by actress Gina Carano after she was ousted from the Disney+ 'Star Wars'-linked streaming series 'The Mandalorian' three years ago over her social media posts.
“After a brutal 3 1/2 years, I am being given the opportunity to move forward in the court of law before the judge and my peers to clear my name. I am so grateful for this opportunity.”In February 2021, Carano was fired from the cast of “The Mandalorian” after she sparked outrage on social media, where she denounced COVID lockdowns and claimed that conservatives were being persecuted.
The actor continued to say, “Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”
After my 20 years of building a career from scratch, and during the regime of former Disney CEO Bob Chapek, Lucasfilm made this statement on Twitter, terminating me from The Mandalorian: âGinaâ¦Carano, a former mixed martial artist whose Dune character used a mix of heavy weapons and her fists to best opponents, had been criticized for social media posts that mocked mask wearing during the pandemic and alleged voter fraud during the 2020 presidential election.
