Actor Gina Carano has filed a lawsuit against Lucasfilm and its parent company, The Walt Disney Co., over her firing from the popular Disney+ series 'The Mandalorian.' Carano alleges that she was wrongfully terminated for expressing right-wing views on social media.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court in California with assistance from X (formerly known as Twitter), claims that Carano's firing was a result of a post she made comparing the treatment of American conservatives to the treatment of Jews in Nazi Germany. The lawsuit opens by stating, 'A short time ago in a galaxy not so far away, Defendants made it clear that only one orthodoxy in thought, speech, or action was acceptable in their empire, and that those who dared to question or failed to fully comply would not be tolerated.'
