Star Wars fans are calling on Disney to fire actress Gina Carano from her role as Cara Dune on Lucasfilm’s The Mandalorian<\/em><\/a><\/strong>. The calls for her removal from the Disney Plus series were prompted by a controversial post that Carano shared on social media.<\/p>\n

Carano made her first appearance as Cara Dune, a former shock trooper\u00a0in the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War of the original Star Wars<\/em> trilogy<\/a>, in the first season of The Mandalorian<\/em>. Now operating as a mercenary, Dune would prove to be a reliable ally for the titular Mandalorian throughout the series, most recently assisting him and a team of bounty hunters on a successful mission to rescue Grogu, a.k.a. Baby Yoda, from the clutches of Moff Gideon.<\/p>\n

Despite the popularity of the series and perhaps even the character Dune, Carano has come under fire from Star Wars<\/em> fans\u00a0due to her\u00a0controversial right-leaning political views. Just over the past year alone, Carano was criticized for writing social media posts arguing against the use of masks to slow the spread of COVID-19 and supporting the unsubstantiated claims of mass voter fraud<\/a> that former President Donald Trump wrongly believes resulted in the 2020 U.S. presidential election turning in then-candidate Joe Biden’s favor. Now, Cara is being chastized by Star Wars<\/em> fans for sharing a social media post on her official Instagram Stories feed\u00a0that compares the persecution of Jewish people in Nazi Germany to the criticism lobbed at those who share her own political views today. The Mandalorian<\/em> star is also being criticized for sharing additional posts\u00a0insinuating that she believes the U.S. press is dishonest, echoing comments frequently made by Trump over the course of his presidency, and mocking those who opt to wear masks in order to protect themselves and others from contracting COVID-19.<\/p>\n
