En gång i tiden var hon världens bästa kvinnliga mixed martial arts-fighter. Vi pratar naturligtvis om före detta Strikeforce-champen Gina Carano som efter att ha blivit förstörd av en viss Cyborg Santos, gick i pension och valde istället att satsa på en filmkarriär. Sedan dess har Gina filmat med Soderbergh, spelat en större roll i Deadpool samt medverkat i drösvis med mindre B-rullar och nu visar det sig att hon hoppat på Iron Man-regissören Jon Favreaus kommande Star Wars-serie The Mandalorian.
Geektyrant skriver följande:
"We've got another big piece of casting news to share with you regarding Lucasfilm's live-action Star Wars series The Mandalorian. According to Variety, former MMA star Gina Carano has been cast in the series. Carano, who has also starred in films such as Deadpool, Haywire, Fast & Furious 6, and more, will join Pedro Pascal in the series along with Carl Weathers (Rocky, Predator), who is also reportedly set to be in the show.
The series is being written and produced by Jon Favreau and the story is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order and it follows "a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic." The episodes will be directed by Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars), Deborah Chow (Jessica Jones), Rick Famuyiwa (Dope), Bryce Dallas Howard (Solemates), and Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok)."
Hur låter det?
