What Will Happen to Cara Dune In THE MANDALORIAN Season 3 After Gina Carano’s Firing?
By Movieguide® Staff
Ahead of THE MANDALORIAN Season 3 premiere on March 1, many fans wondered what would happen to the character Cara Dune, played by MMA fighter Gina Carano.
Lucasfilm previously fired Carano from the Disney+ series, who had become a fan-favorite for her role alongside Pedro Pascal.
Movieguide® previously reported of the firing:
Disney reportedly fired THE MANDALORIAN star Gina Carano after the actress received backlash from a social media post that compared America’s political divide to how the Nazi party came to power in Germany.
Additionally, Lucasfilm’s statement said that “there are no plans for” the rehiring of Carano and that “her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”
The series addresses Dune’s absence in the first episode of Season 3, claiming that she was admitted to a special forces unit due to her help in defeating Moff Gideon.
Fans and co-stars came to Carano’s defense, but there appears to be no near future where Carano returns to THE MANDALORIAN.
