While Disney’s handling of Star Wars hasn’t exactly been without its controversies and letdowns, no one can deny that The Mandalorian is a smashing success and widely beloved by both fans and critics. But even that’s not squeaky clean anymore.
Indeed, while the show appeared to be untouchable within the divisive fanbase, it now seems that Gina Carano’s dismissal will haunt Jon Favreau’s series for years to come. Obviously, not everyone agrees with Disney letting her go and it doesn’t look like the online firestorm will be dying down anytime soon. Especially since Carano keeps on fuelling it.
Shortly after being let go, she announced plans to team up with Ben Shapiro of The Daily Wire to produce and star in a new movie, while she’s surely got several other projects brewing in development, too. Though we imagine they’re not housed at any major studios, given that she’s been all but blacklisted in Hollywood. But that’s not going to stop her from continuing to make herself heard and according to a new report, she’s even working on building her own franchise to headline.
Tipster Daniel Richtman has taken to his Patreon account today to share that he’s heard the actress is trying to “build a franchise” of her own with the support of “right wing” people. It’s unclear if this would be for television or film, or if it’s connected to the aforementioned Daily Wire project. And unfortunately, Richtman doesn’t offer anything further.
Still, it’s clear that Gina Carano isn’t just going to quietly fade away, never to be seen on our screens again. Like we said above, it’s unlikely she’ll be in any major studio efforts – at least for a while – but there are still plenty of folks out there willing to work and collaborate with her.
It hasn’t been very long since it was announced that J.J. Abrams will be rebooting Superman with a script from Ta-Nehisi Coates, but the rampant speculation has already consigned Henry Cavill’s Big Blue Boy Scout to the history books. Which seems odd when there’s no indication that his time as the hero is over. Not to mention that the precedent for him to continue on as the DCEU’s resident Supes has already been set.
Indeed, the actor still has one movie left on his contract after Justice League, and reportedly extended that deal last summer. Furthermore, we know that The Flash will bring us Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton as two different versions of Batman in the same film, while Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight is also out there somewhere in the wider DC universe, so there’s no reason why we can’t have two Supermen as well.
Regardless, it’s widely believed that Cavill is done with the role at this point and even if he does return, it wouldn’t be in any sort of meaningful capacity, with reports pointing to Warner Bros. perhaps having him show up for a cameo or two at most. But apparently, the actor himself is still hopeful for something more.
Tipster Daniel Richtman has taken to his Patreon account today to share some new intel on the situation, explaining that Cavill is hoping that WB will “change their mind” and bring him back for another solo movie, which would presumably be that Man of Steel sequel that we never got.
Of course, just because this is what Henry wants, that doesn’t mean it’ll be what The Witcher star gets. And quite frankly, everything we’ve seen so far indicates that the studio has no interest in another solo Superman film featuring the actor. The fans may be on board with it, and Cavill might still be game, but at the end of the day, unfortunately neither of those parties are the ones calling the shots.
