Gina Carano’s fans petition to being her back to the ‘Star Wars’ franchise

Gina Carano’s fans want her back on the “Star Wars” TV series, “The Mandalorian”, and they’re willing to fight for it.

The actress was recently fired from her role on the show over comments she made on social media. The comments were regarding her comparison of the current political divide to the events that took place in Nazi Germany.

This sparked a new Charge.org petition by fans calling for the makers of the show to give Carano her part back. It also asks the makers to keep politics aside while making artistic decisions.

“I’m not going to say she was right or wrong with her views, but firing celebrities over their political views has been happening way too often, and once again, Hollywood has struck down another conservative,” the petition’s author writes. “What she said may have been a little extreme, and I can even see why some people may have been offended, but her tweet was not made to incite violence or to express discrimination or hatred of any sort to any particular group.”

Continuing the description, “And now, once again, a beloved actress has been fired for speaking her mind. This petition is for the executives at Disney. Please, why can’t you just leave politics out of the industry and press on? ‘The Mandalorian’ is a fantastic show, and Gina Carano’s portrayal of Cara Dune is a joy to watch. The Mandalorian wouldn’t be the same without her.”

The petition as of now has over 12,000 signatures.
