Star Wars cannot post anything online without being totally roasted!

According to WeGotThisCovered:

It’d been nearly a month since Gina Carano found herself at the center of an online firestorm, which is pretty good considering that The Mandalorian‘s Cara Dune has had to deal with an angry Twitter mob on an almost daily basis in recent times. Indeed, things had quieted down and the storm seemed to be blowing over. But then the Capitol Hill riots took place.

As you’ve surely seen, the actress liked several tweets that seemingly supported the same ideologies as those who stormed the Capitol, which once again led to calls for her to be fired from the hit Disney Plus series. However, the Mouse House has remained silent on the matter, ignoring the backlash and refusing to comment on it. But it would seem that behind the scenes, there are indeed discussions taking place on what to do about the actress.

Pirates & Princesses has published an interesting report today on what’s going on over at the studio, and according to them, Lucasfilm aren’t best pleased with Carano and have no problem letting her go. However, showrunner Jon Favreau is apparently sticking up for her and isn’t concerned at all with her social media activity.
