After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic.
The series will be written and executive produced by Emmy-nominated producer and actor Jon Favreau, as previously announced, with Dave Filoni (Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels) directing the first episode.
Additional episodic directors include Deborah Chow (Jessica Jones), Rick Famuyiwa (Dope), Bryce Dallas Howard (Solemates), and Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok).
It will be executive produced by Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. Karen Gilchrist will serve as co-executive producer. Stay tuned to StarWars.com for updates.

What's worse is that the "America" image is from Hebron.
A soup kitchen in Hebron.
This is a picture of Palestinian children in a soup kitchen in Hebron. In the last couple of days people are sharing a cropped version of this claiming its from an American/Israeli prison. Whatever your argument is, the minute you base it on a lie, you're a demagogue pic.twitter.com/MwxOUr7KA4

Yup, pretty dumb of Pedro. On the other hand, Carano has been in the crosshairs for like 2 years. Like in business, you aren't going to fire your allstar employee after 1 transgression. The employee who keeps eating other people's lunches and being late to work won't have the same leeway. [Reply]

All fine, so long as we're clear that it's about cutthroat partisanship and the disposability of some people, and not some moral stance. [Reply]

Yes; her brand of politics ultimately got her fired. [Reply]

Time is a flat circle and everything eventually comes back around again. It is only be a matter of time. [Reply]

I agree with you. Perhaps folks opposed to granting protections to marginalized groups now see the importance of doing so when the shoe is on the other foot. [Reply]

Oh, people are being taught a lesson. How clever. [Reply]

Exactly... it is just amazing that people continue to buy products that allow this to happen. We get that "Oh well, they knew what they were getting into.". [Reply]
