Disney CEO denies Gina Carano was fired from ‘The Mandalorian’ for being conservative

Gina Carano’s firing from The Mandalorian had more to do with overall values than the fact that she’s suddenly become a rising star among conservatives.

That’s according to Disney CEO Bob Chapak, who commented on Carano’s firing for the first time on Tuesday during a shareholders meeting.

The former mixed martial artist-turned-actress claimed she found out about her firing on social media after the Twitter hashtag #FireGinaCarano had been trending throughout that same week following several controversial posts on her social media. Carano was also dropped by her talent agents at UTA.
