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.Finally, after months of waiting — long, unforgiving waiting — the trailer for Sony’s The Emoji Movie has finally touched down!
(Disclaimer: unfortunately, The Independent website cannot handle emoji, so this article comes in real words! But with lots of exclamation marks to make up for the technical error!)
Yes, the world can finally hear Sir Patrick Stewart as an emoji poop! Deadpool's T.J. Miller as an exuberant ‘meh’ face! James Corden as Hi-5! And Anna Faris as Jailbreak! Marketing madness!
The Emoji Movie centres on Miller’s 'meh' emoji who discovers that — unlike the other emoji stuck in the same kid's phone — can make multiple faces that aren't just 'meh'! Exciting!
Of course, this angers the other emoji (booooooo) who cast out the loveable character, leading to a rag-tag bunch of misfits working together to become useable emoji once more! And they have to play Candy Crush! Sponsorship!
Wow! That does not sound like Wreck It Ralph at all! Directed by Tony Leondis — who also wrote the film — The Emoji Movie reaches cinemas 28 July! Yey.
