Gina Carano went on The Ben Shapiro Show to continue to unpack the recent events surrounding her firing from Disney+’s The Mandalorian — particularly her relationship with her former costar Pedro Pascal.
As reported earlier, the actress was fired from the Lucasfilm and Disney series after she took to social media to, as Lucasfilm described it, post “abhorrent” material that compared the current divided political climate in the U.S. to Nazi Germany. This caused “#FireGinaCarano” to trend and eventually, she was.
In the interview with Shapiro, she talked about how Pascal wasn’t fired for posting a 2018 tweet where he compared undocumented children in cages in the U.S. to Jewish people in concentration camps. Shapiro points out how it did seem like a double standard that Disney and Lucasfilm didn’t take similar action with Pascal as they did with Carano.
“I adore Pedro,” Carano said in the interview.
