This time, the target is the 90s kids action show Mighty Morphin Power Rangers—specifically the casting decisions made over 30 years ago.

The legal battle between Gina Carano and Disney has just entered a new—and potentially game-changing—phase. Following a federal judge’s decision to grant Carano’s motion to compel, Disney has been ordered to turn over key internal compensation records tied to The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, The Book of Boba Fett, Andor, The Acolyte, and the upcoming The Mandalorian & Grogu film.

For anyone paying attention, the announcement that Jennifer Salke was “stepping down” as head of Amazon MGM Studios didn’t pass the smell test. The language was corporate-friendly, the tone soft, and the messaging was all about her “next chapter” as a producer. But the moment the email hit inboxes, the reaction across the industry was unanimous: Jennifer Salke was fired.
