Gina Carano wins lawsuit

Gina Carano has achieved a significant legal victory against Disney and Lucasfilm after a federal judge denied the company's motion to dismiss her wrongful termination lawsuit. Carano claims her firing from 'The Mandalorian' was unjust and based on her right-wing political views expressed on social media, which she argues has caused her emotional distress and financial loss. In response to the ruling, Carano expressed her gratitude, stating she is finally able to clear her name after a challenging three and a half years. The lawsuit, which is reportedly funded by Elon Musk, will move forward unless a settlement is reached. Disney's defense has centered on its right to dissociate from Carano's controversial statements, which included comparisons of political criticism to the Holocaust. The judge noted that Disney failed to provide evidence supporting its claims that Carano's employment was detrimental to its values, indicating that the case will now go to trial.
