Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

Either Tom Cruise has no idea how to use a clapperboard, or he has just revealed when Mission: Impossible 6 will hit cinemas.

Joining Instagram, the finest sprinter in Hollywood posted a photo revealing the film's title, Mission: Impossible: Fallout, with the Slate field saying 'SUMMER' (slated for summer, geddit?) and the Take field as 18 (no wordplay here).

Because Tom Cruise is never not hanging out the side of moving vehicle, he also posted a photo of him balancing on a helicopter's landing skids as it soars over a mountain range.

He is of course doing all his own stunts again, and only the other day was running over the roof of a bridge across the Thames a couple of miles away from our office.

Alec Baldwin, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Michelle Monaghan and Rebecca Ferguson will all return for Mission: Impossible: Fallout (so many colons), joined this time by Henry Cavill, Angela Bassett and Vanessa Kirby.
