DIS--
Carano, who played Cara Dune in "The Mandalorian," was fired in February 2021 following controversial social media posts. Disney accused her of "denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities" and stated that her posts were "abhorrent and unacceptable." Carano maintained that she was wrongfully terminated for her conservative views.
The lawsuit, filed in February 2024, alleged that Carano was discriminated against and wrongfully terminated due to her social media posts. In response, Disney argued that they had a First Amendment right to fire Carano, stating that they had "a constitutional right not to associate its artistic expression with Carano's speech."
In a statement, Disney said that Carano was "always well respected" by her colleagues and that they looked forward to identifying opportunities to work together with her in the near future. Carano also expressed gratitude to Musk for funding her lawsuit and thanked her followers for their support.
The settlement marks the end of a years-long dispute between Carano and Disney. The exact terms of the agreement remain undisclosed, but both parties have expressed a desire to move forward and potentially collaborate in the future.
