Initializer for conditional binding must have Optional type, not 'String'
this is the error I keep getting.
let movieDictionary = ["Spectre": ["cast": ["Daniel Craig", "Christoph Waltz", "LÊa Seydoux", "Ralph Fiennes", "Monica Bellucci", "Naomie Harris"]]]
var leadActor: String = ""
// Enter code below
if let movie = movieDictionary["Spectre"], let cast = movie["cast"]{
var leadActor = cast[0]
}

because you've already declared a variable of "leadActor" from line 3. Everything else should work because it worked for me. Happy coding!
