🎬 HOW TO PLAY: Each puzzle is a chain that connects two actors through the movies they've appeared in — but watch out for decoys (movies or actors who don't fit into the solution). There are three levels of difficulty, with more decoys appearing as the puzzles get harder.

🍿 Note: There might be a shorter or different way to connect these actors (and hey, I'd love to hear about them in the comments), but there's only one correct solution using the pool of movies and actors listed.

New puzzles drop every weekday at 6 a.m. ET.
