I know this is a terrible thing to say on /lit/ but it's literally the only thing that sparked my interest in the past few years: how's the movie they're making of it?

They cast Sir Gawain with a Pajeet actor and then play it off in the movie by calling out multiple times in the movie that he's the mixed race spawn of an English woman and a Pajeet man. Really makes you wonder why they couldn't have just cast him with literally any English actor and avoided adding in all of the weird callouts.
