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.
Your support makes all the difference.The literary Gnome franchise is in full swing: 2011's Gnomeo & Juliet now finds itself a sequel in Sherlock Gnomes, with an all-star cast to boot.
An exclusive clip sees Paris (Stephen Merchant) staging a production of the Princess and the Frog, starring Benny (Matt Lucas) and Nanette (Ashley Jensen), with Reggie the gargoyle (Dexter Fletcher) keen to watch the action unfold.
Lord Redbrick is on hand to make sure Paris keeps on track, while Gnomeo (James McAvoy) himself is seen sneaking behind, hoping not to get caught.
The plot sees Sherlock Gnomes (Johnny Depp) and Gnome Watson (Chiwetel Ejiofor) team up with Gnomeo and Juliet (Emily Blunt) to solve the case and find their missing friends and family.
The cast also includes the likes of Mary J. Blige, Maggie Smith, Julie Walters, Richard Wilson, and Ozzy Osbourne.
Sherlock Gnomes hits UK cinemas 11 May.
