...the character was actually pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of the show. Apparently she was supposed to be announced as the star of of Rangers of the New Republic but those plans were scrapped after her November stuff and Lucasfilm was just sitting back waiting for her to f*** up again. So, sounds like they were already proceeding forward as if Gina was gone anyways.

Legit, is anybody shocked by this? They showed her infinite patience with social media, and she just kept pushing.
And on the same day where we got the wholesome story about Pedro Pascal.

...the character was actually pretty insignificant in the grand scheme of the show. You say that but I’m very sure she was going to have a bigger role in the Rangers of the New Republic spin off. Like, her appearances were mostly there to set up “Hey, this character is probably going to be the lead!”

I'm about half convinced she wanted out. You don't just keep pushing and not know that's coming

Turns out, yeah, they could. She's good at action, she looks great, but she isn't much of a draw. Never overestimate how big of a star you are. Unless you're top of the line A-list, you're expendable to studios.

Now that Ahsoka is there, you lose absolutely nothing of value by dumping Carano's ignorant ass.

She's imposing enough for action and not a deer in the headlights like Ronda is Gina pretty much messed up her cash cow. She had the Nathan Jones role down packed

Oh, I’m not saying she would be justified in thinking that way but considering certain people over the years, your Tim Allens, your Rosanne Barrs (before she decided she apparently hated money) etc, and how long they ignored stuff in the first place. I could see her thinking “Well, I’ve got a good spot. Would be unlike them to let me go so I’m just going to carry on.”

Like, you gonna f*** with Angela Bassett? I wouldn’t. Pedro Pascal pretty much gave Gina the talk and her response was “Pfft, whatever”.

There's the saying "If you have to think about if you should hit send, the answer is no."

Smartest shit she could have done cause she was defending that shit the first little while after and no doubt someone called her and told yeah if you want to keep your job you better act right

Man, if only Christopher Plummer were still with us, this whole thing could be sorted in a few weeks.
