Why getting unexpected nil value passing data already loaded in tableview by a segue

well my problem is that idk how to pass the info values from the uitableviewcell to the anotherviewcontroller by the segue, could you please help, im unwraped the value, cause the data is already loaded idk what to do to pass the info to the popup controller without crashed

Here is my class model where i set the values

class MovieCell: UITableViewCell {  //  // MARK: - Class Constants  //  static let identifier = "MovieCell"  let urlImage = "https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w500"  //  // MARK: - IBOutlets  //  @IBOutlet weak var title: UILabel!  @IBOutlet weak var rating: RatingView!  @IBOutlet weak var releaseDate: UILabel!  @IBOutlet weak var poster: UIImageView!  var titlePopUp: String = ""  func configure(movieDictionary: [String: Any]) {        title.text = (movieDictionary["title"] as! String)      titlePopUp = movieDictionary["title"] as! String           releaseDate.text = (movieDictionary["release_date"] as! String)      do {          let url = URL(string: "\(self.urlImage)" + "\(movieDictionary["backdrop_path"]!)")          let data = try Data(contentsOf: url!)          self.poster!.image = UIImage(data: data)                    }      catch{          print(error)      }  }  

}

heres is the viewcontroller where i get the error in the line 53

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController,UITableViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {

var jsonArray: [Any] = []  let movieService = MovieService()  let popUpVC  = popUpViewController()  @IBOutlet weak var moviesTableView: UITableView!  @IBOutlet weak var postersView: UICollectionView!    override func viewDidLoad() {      super.viewDidLoad()      movieService.fetchMovies { jsonArray in          if let jsonArray = jsonArray {              self.jsonArray = jsonArray              self.moviesTableView.reloadData()              self.postersView.reloadData()          }      }      self.moviesTableView.delegate = self      self.moviesTableView.dataSource = self  }    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {      self.jsonArray.count  }    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {      let cell:MovieCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "MovieCell", for: indexPath) as! MovieCell      cell.configure(movieDictionary: jsonArray[indexPath.row] as! [String: Any])      return cell  }    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {     present(popUpVC, animated: true, completion: nil)     moviesTableView.deselectRow(at: indexPath, animated: true)            self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "popUp", sender: self)        }    override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {      if segue.identifier == "popUp" {          let destinationVC = segue.destination as! popUpViewController          let data = MovieCell()          destinationVC.movieN = data.title.text!      }  }  

and the popup controller is this one

class popUpViewController: UIViewController {    @IBOutlet weak var poster: UIImageView!  @IBOutlet weak var movieName: UILabel!  @IBOutlet weak var releaseDate: UILabel!  @IBOutlet weak var descriptionMovie: UILabel!    var movieN = String()    override func viewDidLoad() {      super.viewDidLoad()      movieName.text = movieN      // Do any additional setup after loading the view.  }    @IBAction func closePop(_ sender: UIButton) {      dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)  }  

}

im getting crash passing the label and image, the clasical error, unexpected nil value, but idk why the data is already loaded in the tableview main screen
