Carano’s controversial social media posts yesterday, described by Lucasfilm as ‘revolting’, saw her languish from The Mandalorian by the studio and dumped by her agency UTA. The former MMA star and Deadpool The actress played bounty hunter Cara Dune in the first two seasons of Lucasfilm and the hit Disney + series.

The actress took the hell out of sharing a TikTok post comparing the current divided political climate in the US to Nazi Germany.

“Jews were beaten in the street, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors… even by children. Because history is being edited, most people today don’t realize that in order to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily gather thousands of Jews together, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply because they were Jews. How different is that from hating someone because of their political views, ”she wrote.

Another photo on Carano’s Instagram story featured a person wearing various masks covering their face and head with the caption, “Meanwhile in California.”

Both posts were removed from the actress’s Instagram yesterday, but others picked it up and reposted it.

The new alliance with Carano raises the prospect of the Daily Wire’s filming operation becoming a home for those who go against Hollywood in controversial ways. But not that Disney will worry too much about that.
