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.

BAFTA nominated director Tom Harper (The Scouting Book for Boys, Channel 4's Misfits) has signed on to direct The Woman in Black: Angel of Death, the next installment in the series of the worldwide box office hit The Woman In Black.

The Woman in Black: Angel Of Death will be brought to the big screen by the same production team behind the original film with a screenplay by Jon Croker based on Susan Hill's novel.

The Woman in Black was directed by James Watkins and starred Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe.

The sequel will continue the story four decades later when, seized by the government during World War II, the sudden arrival of a group of evacuated children at Eel Marsh House awakens its darkest inhabitant.

Harper is best known for his Bafta-nominated series Misfits about a bunch of young offenders who develop super powers after being struck by lightning.
