Your support helps us to tell the story
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.
Your support makes all the difference.With Clash of the Titans releasing this weekend in North America, another Greek mythological epic, Dawn of War (or War of the Gods) is assembling its cast.
Mickey Rourke puts aside his Whiplash role in Iron Man 2 to portray King Hyperion and Frieda Pinto ( Slumdog Millionaire) will play priestess Phaedra.
The young warriors co-starring include Luke Evans from Titans and the upcoming Robin Hood as Zeus. Kellan Lutz ( Twilight films and the upcoming Nightmare on Elm Street) is to play the god Poseidon. Stephen Dorff ( Public Enemies) plays Stavros who joins Theseus, portrayed by Henry Cavill ( The Tudors) to free Greece from the threat of the imprisoned Titans.
The film begins production in Montreal this month. It is directed by Tarsem Singh ( The Fall, The Cell), who is said to be shooting in a style reminiscent of 300. No plans for 3D yet.
