I don’t think the cases are at all similar. Gunn made crude jokes he had already apologized for. Gina’s case is, well… I wouldn’t describe it similarly. Would you?

It sounds like they already had plans to not bring back Carano for season 3 and they are just confirming it. She’s been dropped by her talent agency and PR firm. Maybe she can make a low-budget action movie with Dean Cain and Kevin Sorbo.

I did see people on Twitter suggesting the role be recast with Lucy Lawless, but I think her fans clamor for her to be cast in every SF/F TV/movie franchise at some point.

Yea it almost sounds like they had already fired her or not renewed her contract but just never publicized it.

Good think no one bet with jmakin. Grading the bet may have been trick if this was the case.

She’s a bit too old for the character, anyway.

Meanwhile, Pedro Pascal continues to take over the world

It’s an interesting day for karma, actually. Yesterday, Gina Carano is a terrible person on social media and gets fired today. Also yesterday, Pedro Pascal’s sister came out as trans and talked glowingly about the love and support shown by her brother, and today Pedro gets another big lead role.

The universe is healing.

Pedro being who he is, is even more reason to laugh at Carano. Did she think doing 180 degrees opposite of him would somehow make her more popular? It wouldn’t surprise me if she thought she carried The Mandalorian. She seems that out of touch with reality.

Not saying they’re similar ideals, but it was firing someone over social media uproar.

Going to agree to disagree.

At first, while reading this, I was thinking it meant the game Among Us was being made into a series. There’s a series that would either be complete shit or the greatest thing ever, with no middle ground. Heavily weighted towards the former though.

Lol I wonder what Billy thinks. He must be laughing his ass off wondering how the fuck she blew a Star Wars role gift wrapped to her.

Hoooooly fuck Bill Burr at his best is just straight up the funniest man in the world. I laughed, I cried then choked on a piece of apple, then laughed some more.

Perfect casting imo. Curious to see if the GOATNESS will transfer to a tv series, though I’m cautiously optimistic since it’s HBO and not say, Netflix.

In the surprise of the century, the same people that were upset about her being fired were upset about her being hired in the first place:

These people just constantly want to feel aggrieved. They need it.

You post really makes me feel angry.

If there aren’t there will be. Gotta feed the bea$t.

Rian Johnson recently confirmed there are still plans for him to do a trilogy. Maybe that will fit what you want.
