What to know

  • Cara Dune-centric Rangers of the New Republic show is dead dead… Not very surprising considering Disney and Lucasfilm cut all ties with Gina Carano — but now the company line is that there weren’t even any scripts written for this would-be series. It’s too bad Carano had to be so problematic as she deprived us of a Star Wars series co-starring Paul Sun-Hyung Lee. Hopefully Lee gets to pop up on The Mandalorian again and elsewhere. ✨
