Overview

  • On August 7, 2025, Disney, Lucasfilm and Gina Carano filed a joint motion to dismiss her federal lawsuit with prejudice, formally ending the litigation.
  • The confidential settlement halts Carano’s wrongful termination and discrimination claims but does not disclose any financial terms or conditions.
  • Carano, who was fired from The Mandalorian in February 2021, had sought reinstatement of her role and punitive damages in the 2024 suit.
  • Her legal fees were underwritten by Elon Musk’s X platform, which he has used to support lawsuits from users claiming speech-based discrimination.
  • Carano posted on X after the settlement, writing “…and the truth shall set you free,” in apparent acknowledgment of the resolution.
