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 promised Frozen short film sequel has been confirmed to screen ahead of Disney’s live action Cinderella remake next March.

Anna, Elsa, Kristoff and of course everybody’s favourite talking snowman, Olaf, will be back for Frozen Fever early in 2015.

Directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee are reuniting for the mini feature, which will see Elsa’s icy powers threaten to disrupt her sister Anna’s birthday party.

Oscar-winning songwriting duo Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, who brought the world “Let It Go”, have composed a new song for Frozen Fever.

Fans can catch the short in cinemas from 13 March when Kenneth Branagh’s Cinderella reaches the big screen. Lily James and Cate Blanchett star as Ella and her wicked step-mother, while Richard Madden will play Prince Charming and Helena Bonham Carter is the Fairy Godmother.

Frozen is the highest-grossing animated feature film in history, grossing more than £800 million at the global box office since its release in November 2013.

It is the fifth highest-grossing movie of all-time and falls just behind Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in worldwide ticket sales.

Three million copies of the Frozen DVD/Blu-ray have been sold, making it the biggest seller of the past ten years after Avatar, according to the Official Charts Company.
