On Wednesday, former Mandalorian star Gina Carano highlighted a striking similarity between a new marketing slogan for Andor Season 2 and one of her own previous tweets. In a post on X, Carano pointed out that the phrase “Welcome to the Rebellion,” prominently used in Andor’s promotional campaign, mirrors her own previous post and also the slogan.
Per Hasbro’s CEO Chris Cocks, they have announced that as of 2025 they will be moving away from physical toys while focusing more on digital play (i.e. video games). Since that time we’ve paradoxically seen one of the largest toymakers in the world begin to license out their properties to other toymakers to produce.
I’m not the CEO of a multi-million dollar company, so it may not be my place to say, but as a toy collector I feel that this is a mis-step on the part of Hasbro and its CEO.

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. The ruling forces the entertainment giant to hand over verified spreadsheets and actor contract data within 20 days—a significant victory in Carano’s ongoing wrongful termination lawsuit.
In a major legal victory for Gina Carano in her legal battle against Disney, the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California has granted a motion to compel Disney to turn over key documents related to how other Star Wars actors were compensated—including big names like Pedro Pascal, Rosario Dawson, and the cast of The Mandalorian & Grogu. The order comes after eight months of what Carano described as Disney’s “deflection and stalling” in her wrongful termination lawsuit.
John Boyega has revisited his experience with the Star Wars franchise in a new Apple TV+ documentary, offering fresh comments that are once again stirring debate among fans. In Number One on the Call Sheet: Black Leading Men in Hollywood, Boyega shared his views on the franchise’s perceiced lack of representation and takes aim at the fanbase instead of the studio.
