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 brand new image teases two new characters from Finding Dory, the sequel to Pixar's beloved 2003 animation Finding Nemo

Our favourite forgetful fish Dory (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres) will be sure to find new friends in her journey across the oceans to reunite with her loved ones. Entertainment Weekly has now offered a first glimpse at two of those new characters and, boy, are they adorable. 

The memory-challenged Dory will likely find affinity with these two and their own issues, though the pair apparently don't get on so well. Ty Burrell voices beluga whale Bailey (the small one), who struggles with his sonar capabilities. Kaitlin Olson voices whale shark Destiny (the big one), who just can't seem to swim straight. 


"We totally get on each other's nerves," Olson told EW of the characters, "I like to think I'm a shark, but Bailey calls me a whale, and I make fun of his head, because it’s gigantic."

Burrell's best known for his role as the strained patriarch of TV's Modern Family, and Olson stars in the sitcom Always Sunny in Philadelphia. They'll be joined by the likes of Albert Brooks, Diane Keaton, Idris Elba, Dominic West, and Eugene Levy.
 


Finding Dory hits UK theatres 29 July.
