Gina Carano ’s lawsuit against Disney for her firing from The Mandalorian has many…odd aspects to it. The filing with an elaborate Star Wars metaphor, one of the conditions is that she be rehired to the show, and the entire thing is bankrolled by Elon Musk as her firing was due in part to controversial comments she made on Twitter ranging from transphobia to comparing persecuted Republicans to Jews in World War II.after a judge declined to dismiss the suit.
“As an initial matter, unlike the Boy Scouts or the Jaycees, Defendants are not members-only, nonprofit organizations. Instead, Defendants are for-profit corporations who, as relevant to this lawsuit, employ actors such as Plaintiff, as well as administrative staff, to create television series and films,” he wrote.
He added that Disney had not produced any evidence that actors must have certain “moral” characteristics to be employed like they claim, saying that they need to have “respect, decency, integrity or inclusion.” The judge isn’t declaring Caranothose things, only that Disney doesn’t have evidence that it retains actors based on those traits.
