Your support helps us to tell the story

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 Star Wars: The Last Jedi finally playing in cinemas around the world, fans are furiously watching out for the multiple cameos within.

Last week, Baby Driver and Shaun of the Dead director Edgar Wright revealed himself and older brother Oscar came as members of the Resistance.

Wright has since posted an image featuring the pair, along with Attack the Block director Joe Cornish and Leo Thompson, wearing their costumes on a green screen set.

They aren't the only directors to appear in the blockbuster; Rogue One’s Gareth Edwards appears prominently as a Resistance fighter on the planet Crait.

Other cameos include Carrie Fisher's beloved dog Gary as a casino-dwelling alien, Princes William and Harry, Tom Hardy and Gary Barlow as stormtroopers, and Mark Hamill as a second character.

Meanwhile, The Last Jedi has received somewhat of a backlash online, some fans finding issue with Rian Johnson’s movie and rating it negatively on Rotten Tomatoes.

The Last Jedi is in cinemas now.
