The third season has just been released The Mandalorian by Disney Plus and with this the absence of a character has been clearly noted: Cara Dune, the rebel soldier played by actress Gina Carano.
It is likely that more than one viewer was surprised by her absence given the weight she had permanently during the first two seasons of the series written by Jon Favreau.
However, those who closely followed the news around the universe of Star Wars and its multiple projects will remember the crisis experienced at the beginning of 2021.
Where Gina Carano He used his social networks to make a series of publications where he basically compared the Republicans with the Jews persecuted by the Nazis.
All after the controversy over the riots in the Capitol after the presidential elections where Donald Trump lost, triggering a series of violent acts in the capitol.
