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.

Tom Felton has undergone an incredible transformation for his role in the fantasy film A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting.

The actor is best known as Draco Malfoy, Hogwarts’s resident villain in the Harry Potter franchise.

In the first look at the actor’s new Netflix movie, Felton has shed his white-blonde hair and famous side parting for a more edgy and sinister appearance.

The forthcoming family movie is based on a children’s book of the same name by Joe Ballarini.

Its story focuses on a babysitter (played by Tamara Smart) who attempts a rescue mission when the child under her care is kidnapped by the Bogeyman (played by Felton).

A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting will arrive on Netflix on 15 October.
