    Gina Carano’s lawsuit, filed on Tuesday, seeks a court order forcing Disney and Lucasfilm to weave her “Mandalorian” character back into the show and recast her for the role.

    lol - They love ‘free’ speech so much, they want to force you to speak!

      This is called “specific performance” when a court orders you to do a specific thing. It is really rarely done because a court strongly prefers to award monetary damages - forcing people to do a specific thing can start to infringe on their rights

      Lol, didn’t the fucking SCOTUS wedding cake case also clearly make this illegal? As per that case it’s unconstitutional because you can’t compel someone to make art, that’s compelling speech and against the 1st amendment. So you can’t force the writers to include a character in their art either.
