⚡️Alex Garland's full cast for the live‑action Elden Ring movie is out, you'll spot familiar faces, but no megastars and no NO-NAMES, just solid actors rather than headline celebs.
That's fine, the game's world is massive and richly detailed, so the film could be the perfect stage to turn lesser‑known performers into breakout stars. It'll be interesting to see who emerges.

Garland in progress: earlier today I tested length, gathered the missing greenery and got ready for finishing touches.
Garland in progress: halfway mark.
Working on the floor now for ease due to the length. This is the longest project I've ever done! The goal is to have enough to frame an archway.
Also improved my tools; got rid of the cheap plastic wire holder and replaced it with a piece of wood from the kid's toy box. Then stole from @Crumbee his gloves to prevent blistering, since I couldn't find mine. I promise to return everything when finished!
Garland in process: getting started with the first half (and fighting with the poorly designed wire case).
Also, a timely reminder to mark the half of the string.
