nvidia is not loading with mkinitcpio

Hey guys , i don't know what i'm doing wrong but my nvidia is not loading with mkinitcpio before my display manager (ly).

# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run.  Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array.  For instance:
#     MODULES=(usbhid xhci_hcd)
MODULES=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)

when I give the command sudo mkinitcpio -P and this is what appears

Re: nvidia is not loading with mkinitcpio

What actual problem are you seeing? https://xyproblem.info/

Adding the modules and using the kms hook is redundant
