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.

The first trailer has been released for Bill & Ted Face the Music, the long-awaited Bill & Ted sequel starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter.

The clip, unveiled on Tuesday, features both actors in their respective roles as Ted and Bill, now middle-aged and tasked with writing a song that will unite the world.

Desperate, they resolve to travel to the future to steal the completed tune from themselves.

In addition to Reeves and Winter, the trailer features a glimpse of William Sadler returning as the Grim Reaper.

Brigette Lundy-Paine and Samara Weaving are also seen, respectively, as Ted and Bill’s daughters.

Bill & Ted Face the Music will be released on 21 August 2020 in the US and in the UK.

It's the third instalment in the Bill & Ted franchise, which began in 1989 with Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure.

A sequel, Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, followed in 1991.
