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.In the remake of the 1981 comedy Arthur, Russell Brand ( Get Him to the Greek) takes on Dudley Moore's role as the rich drunken playboy.
This first trailer, released on February 10, shows Arthur as a spoiled freewheeling rascal, who is given an ultimatum by his mother to marry an approved heiress, Susan - or lose his inheritance.
When he resists the woman and stands up to his family, Arthur loses his billion dollar fortune. His character is tested when choosing true love over money.
Helen Mirren ( Red) costars in the valet role previously played by John Gielgud, Jennifer Garner ( The Invention of Lying) plays the intended bride, and Greta Gerwig ( No Strings Attached) takes on Liza Minnelli's role as the girlfriend.
Thirty years later the jokes have changed but the situation remains comedic with Brand's interpretation of Moore's role. Arthur is scheduled for release on April 8.
