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.

A tv spot for Aquaman has revealed new footage from the upcoming DC superhero movie.

Jason Momoa reprises his role from Justice League, following on from the events of that film and seeing the character, named Arthur Curry, battle with those on land who threaten Atlantis, and those in Atlantis who want to battle the land-dwellers.

This is the first solo film for the character, with a solo film also planned for Justice League's The Flash (Ezra Miller). Other DC films set for release are Shazam!, Wonder Woman 1984, and Birds of Prey.

Aquaman also stars Nicole Kidman as Queen Atlanna (Aquaman's mother), Amber Heard as Mera (raised by Queen Atlanna but not her daughter), Willem Dafoe as Nuidis Vulko (Aquaman's mentor), and Patrick Wilson as Ocean Master (Aquaman's half-brother and the movie's villain).
