The last time we talked about Gina Carano's wrongful termination suit against Disney was in April, when a court granted Carano's legal team a discovery motion.
Earlier today, Carano posted this positive, albeit cryptic message:
So this writer suspected something was up. And it was.
Disney/Lucasfilm and Carano have reached a settlement in the suit:
Here's more from the Hollywood Reporter:
In a statement, a Lucasfilm spokesperson said, 'With this lawsuit concluded, we look forward to identifying opportunities to work together with Ms. Carano in the near future.'
'We have reached an agreement with Gina Carano to resolve the issues in her pending lawsuit against the companies,' it added. 'Ms. Carano was always well respected by her directors, co-stars, and staff, and she worked hard to perfect her craft while treating her colleagues with kindness and respect.'
Terms of the settlement, announced on Thursday, weren’t disclosed.
In a lawsuit filed last year, Carano alleged she was fired for voicing right-wing opinions on social media and sought a court order that would force Lucasfilm to recast her. Elon Musk, making good on a promise to foot the legal bill for users who claim they have been discriminated against due to their activity on his platform, helped fund the suit through X.
While we would've loved for this to go to discovery and trial, it's not surprising Disney/Lucasfilm didn't.
The show is now on hiatus (no Season 4 has been confirmed) and Disney is moving on with the 'Mandalorian and Grogu' movie (which is going to flop, let's be real).
We notice there was no apology in the Hollywood Reporter article.
Why would anyone want to work for a place that fired you and is so hypocritical?
We notice Pedro Pascal -- who has said far worse, more offensive things -- is the lead in Disney/Marvel's 'Fantastic Four' after all.
This isn't a lie.
She stood up to a giant and won.
A public apology is more than warranted. But we wouldn't hold our breath.
That's a heck of a statement.
There was much rejoicing on X.
