Gina Carano has said she felt “hopeless” after being fired from The Mandalorian but that filing a lawsuit against the production companies showed she was “able to fight back”.

The US actress is suing Disney and Lucasfilm for wrongful termination and discrimination as she claims she was dropped from the sci-fi franchise for expressing her “personal political opinions” on social media.
