Gina Carano, one of the best known faces of The mandalorian, will not return to the stories of “Star Wars” due to a new controversy on social networks that, among other things, compared the political situation in the United States with Nazi Germany.
“Gina Carano does not currently work for Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to do so in the future,” said a spokesman for the company that runs “Star Wars” in a statement picked up by US media. “In any case, your posts on social media denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are aberrant and unacceptable,” he added.
It is not the first time that the interpreter, who gives life to the character of Cara Dune in fiction starring Chilean Pedro Pascal, is criticized for his political views, as he has previously shared hoaxes about the coronavirus and vaccines, and also other “jokes” about transgender people that he later retracted.
On this occasion, Carano published on Instagram a photograph of war from the last century with the following text: “Jews were beaten in the streets not by Nazi soldiers, but by their neighbors. Even by children.” “As history is altered, most people do not realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily arrest thousands of Jews, the government first provoked their own neighbors to hate them simply for being Jews. How is that different from hating someone for their political opinions? “The actress posted.

Although the message did not reflect a political alignment, that text was followed by a photo of a man with his head covered in masks and the text: “Meanwhile in California.”
Carano has on other occasions been against the use of masks and has supported comments that assure that there is no racism in the United States and that the followers of former President Donald Trump are treated unfairly.
He once made fun of the pronouns with which certain transgender people ask to be identified, but later withdrew this joke in bad taste after “understanding” the matter thanks to an explanation from Pedro Pascal.

The actress, who has also participated in films such as “Deadpool” (2016) and was a figure in martial arts, deleted both publications. “They have looked (at Lucasfilm) for a reason to fire her for two months and today was the last straw,” a company source told The Hollywood Reporter.
This magazine also assured that Lucasfilm He was scheduled to present a new Star Wars television project starring Gina Carano in December, but that plan was blown up after his numerous controversies on social media.
