It's April 16th. This is entertainment and celebrity news to day pop culture powered by AI. Gina Carano is stepping back into the MMA cage after getting fired from the Mandalorian four years ago. She set to face Ronda Rousey on May 16th, marking her return to fighting roots before her acting days took off in films like Fast and Furious. Sixth and Deadpool. Those last few years hit her hard after losing the Cara Dune role on the Star Wars series due to backlash over her social media takes. She went from the screen to regrouping and now she's feeling that real peace again in training. Her family noticed right away saying she looks healthy and urging her to commit fully or not at all. Carano shared how folks mostly know her as an actor, but Ronda's giving her a gracious reintroduction to the fight world. The firing stem from posts comparing US politics to Nazi times, questioning masks during COVID and echoing voter fraud claims from the 20, 20 election.

She sued Lucasfilm for wrongful termination, but they settled it the next year. With this bout ahead, Carano promises fans the best version of her yet, channeling that fight her spirit she never really left behind.
