Actor Gina Carano has settled her federal lawsuit against Lucasfilm and its parent company, The Walt Disney Co. The suit stemmed from Carano's firing from "The Mandalorian" in 2021, which she claimed was due to her expressing right-wing views on social media. Specific terms of the settlement were not released. Lucasfilm stated that Carano was "always well respected" and expressed hope for future collaborations. The case, which alleged wrongful termination, was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled. Carano thanked her supporters and Elon Musk for funding the lawsuit. She stated her desire to continue working in the arts. Carano had previously faced criticism for social media posts, including one comparing the treatment of American conservatives to Jews in Nazi Germany, and others mocking mask-wearing and alleging voter fraud.
