Part 3/8:
Amidst the legal saga, a surprising development has captured fans' and media’s attention: Gina Carano now officially appears in a newly released Star Wars reference book. The Star Wars Encyclopedia published by DK this month features Carano as her character, Cara Dune, with a detailed entry that includes her military background and adventures with the Mandalorian.
This inclusion is notable because it marks an official, lore-based acknowledgment of Carano’s character within this expanded universe, even after her departure from the series and controversy surrounding her comments. Notably, the book does not mention any characters related to the series The Acolyte—a key point emphasizing that her appearance is limited to this literary entry.
