Disney submitting Gina Carano for Emmy consideration took her team by surprise
-
The Mandalorian alum, who was fired earlier this year over her controversial social media posts, is part of Disney's For Your Consideration Emmy campaign. “It was added by Disney unbeknownst to us,” a rep for Carano tells Vanity Fair. The representative had first noticed Carano being featured in Disney’s FYC marketing via a poster, and was subsequently asked for a headshot (which was provided). “But (we) haven’t been involved in their campaign," said the rep. Disney has yet to respond to a request for comment.
