Gina Carano Returns to TV With Vegas Crime Thriller Logan Reign, Her First Since The Mandalorian

After settling her lawsuit with Disney, Gina Carano storms back to TV with Logan Reign, a hard-boiled Vegas crime series and her first small-screen role since The Mandalorian.
Vegas is calling, and Gina Carano is picking up. Six weeks after settling her discrimination lawsuit with Disney and Lucasfilm (Carano called it a win), the former Mandalorian regular is heading back to TV with a new crime series set on the Strip called 'Logan Reign.' Deadline had the exclusive.
So what is 'Logan Reign'?
Carano plays a Las Vegas legal assistant who punches a very different timecard after hours: she spends her nights taking on bad guys. It is as comic-book simple as it sounds, but the hook here is the setting and the star. Carano grew up in Vegas, and she plans to shoot there, treating the city like a character in its own right. If you watched her as Cara Dune on 'The Mandalorian' for two seasons, you can imagine the vibe.
'Logan Reign is someone I have been craving to bring to life.'
Carano says she is emptying the tank for this one and is downright giddy about going home to film in Las Vegas. Lights, grit, neon — the whole thing.
Who is making it
- Straightwire, run by Rob Weston — who, interestingly, used to manage Carano — is the lead company on the project.
- They have teamed with Impossible Dream Entertainment, the banner from 'Get Out' producers Shaun Reddick and Yvette Yates Redick.
The timing
This is Carano's first TV move since 'The Mandalorian' and comes just a month and a half after her legal dust-up with Disney and Kathleen Kennedy's Lucasfilm wrapped. Inside baseball note: having your former manager producing your comeback series is a very Hollywood full-circle moment.
What the backers are promising
Producers are pitching 'Logan Reign' as bold and high-octane — the kind of role they think could become Carano's signature. Weston, for his part, says she has the intensity and heart to make the show feel visceral and memorable. Translation: expect a hard-charging action vehicle built around her presence and Vegas atmosphere.
