Gina Carano, one of the best-known faces in the series “The Mandalorian”, signed for the conservative newspaper The Daily Wire after being fired from the “Star Wars” franchise for her controversial political comments.
In a statement, the actress announced that she will write and produce a film with the support of the well-known news platform and commentator Ben Shapiro, one of the most prominent voices of conservative activism in the United States.
“I am sending a direct message of hope to all who live in fear of being canceled by the totalitarian mob. My voice is freer now,” he said.
The decision comes just a day after Lucasfilm, the producer responsible for the “Star Wars” movies and the “The Mandalorian” series, dropped her job and called some of the comments perpetrated by the actress “aberrant.” .
Specifically, the controversy was sparked by a post on social media in which the actress compared the political situation in the United States with Nazi Germany.
“As history is altered, most people don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily stop thousands of Jews, the government provoked before their own neighbors hated them simply for To be Jewish. How is it different from hating someone for their political views? “
While the message did not reflect a political alignment, this text was followed by a photo of a man with his head covered in masks and the text: “Meanwhile in California.”
Carano has on other occasions been opposed to the use of masks, backed by comments assuring that there is no racism in the United States and that supporters of former President Donald Trump are being treated unfairly.
He once mocked the pronouns with which certain transgender people claim to be identified and on another occasion published cartoons reflecting anti-Semitic conspiracies, among other messages that also supported repeated allegations of electoral fraud, without evidence, by Trump.
