From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Daniel Radcliffe has shared the first image from the set of his new film imperium, in which he plays an undercover FBI agent who infiltrates a group of neo-Nazis believed to be building a dirty bomb.

It’s a bold change from his Harry Potter image, with Radcliffe shaving his head for the part.

“Hi Everyone, here's the first look of me as FBI agent Nate Foster in IMPERIUM,” Radcliffe wrote on Google+ of all places.

“We began filming the movie this week. I'm very excited about it and will tell you more about it soon! -Dan”.

Imperium is based on the real life experiences of ex-FBI agent Michael German, who co-wrote the script with relative newcomer director Daniel Ragussis.

Radcliffe will next appear in Victor Frankenstein, a different retelling of Shelley’s classic story in which he plays sidekick Igor.
