Elon Musk funds 'Mandalorian' actress to sue Disney

Gina Carano, an actor who was fired from "The Mandalorian" series by Disney in 2021, recently sued Disney and Lucasfilm for discrimination and wrongful dismissal. The litigation costs were funded by Elon Musk.

In February 2021, Gina Carano satirized the election results on social platforms, expressed dissent about masks and vaccines, and compared American conservatives to the Jews who were massacred in World War II. In response, Lucasfilm believed that her defamatory remarks against people's cultural and religious identities were disgusting and unacceptable, and no longer employed her.

Musk is providing funding to fulfill an earlier promise: to pay legal fees for users who have been discriminated against due to their speech on his social media platform.
