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.With just over a month until Star Wars: The Last Jedi finally reaches cinemas, multiple new clips have found their way online.
First off, there was a behind-the-scenes featurette that focussed on director Rian Johnson, featuring some flickers of new footage.
Now comes the TV spot, which sees some key new scenes added, including Luke Skywalker — played by Mark Hamill — entering the Millenium Falcon.
Last month, a longer trailer for The Last Jedi was released online, featuring some very teasing words and imagery. Read our breakdown here.
Episode VIII follows on from events depicted in JJ Abrams' hugely-successful The Force Awakens, which was released in December 2015.
Johnson’s sequel will see the return of Daisy Ridley, Carrie Fisher, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Lupita Nyong’o, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Anthony Daniels and Gwendoline Christie alongside newcomers Kelly Marie Tran, Laura Dern and Benicio Del Toro.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi opens in UK cinemas on 14 December 2017.
