One thing Carano has made a career of doing is taking on physically demanding roles such as her presence in Haywire and Deadpool.
Gina Carano’s presence in The Mandalorian also managed to get out ahead of an official announcement, although unlike Pedro Pascal, there’s been no description regarding her character.
This may mean the series is hoping to use Carano in an action-heavy role and possibly put her years of MMA experience to work on-camera.
