Just a week after teasing a potential return to the Star Wars universe, fired The Mandalorian actress Gina Carano has admitted that she and her former castmate Pedro Pascal haven’t spoken in more than two years.
Carano recently described a “really lovely” conversation with Lucasfilm boss Dave Filoni and The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau, conducted after her lawsuit with Disney was settled. Carano did not confirm whether a return for her Star Wars character Cara Dune was part of that conversation, but the suggestion was that such a return was now possible, years after her firing over social media posts Disney previously deemed unacceptable.
Now, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Carano has discussed that conversation further — and praised both Filoni and Favreau.
“I think it was, ‘Let’s touch base,'” Carano said of the call, confirming it took place back in January of this year. “Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni were two people that I always respected, and we went through two seasons together, and we had a great relationship. And even during everything that was happening, Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau were never the bad guys to me.
“I won’t really disclose any of that,” Carano continued, when asked specifically if her return had been discussed, “but I will say that for me, it was an important conversation. To Zoom, to see each other, to mend whatever, to make sure everybody was good. And everybody was good.”
