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.Two lead roles in the next Star Wars movie are set to be filled by unknowns, as Disney, who bought Lucasfilm last year, will hold auditions open to the public this week. If you could play a "street smart and strong" orphaned girl, or a "smart capable" man in his 20s you could be one step away from Hollywood. Other parts also potentially on offer include...
Hope of humanity: You are white and blonde
Robot butler: You say sorry when people bump into you (or excuse me!) and fuss about things ceaselessly and tiresomely
Fat alien king: Round, loud and proud of it, kids called you Jabba in the playground but you didn't care
Jedi warrior: For a grown person, you got *way* over-excited about this news
Alien philosopher: You have terrible, terrible syntax and people think you're kind of pretentious
Intergalactic warlord: You have mummy-issues and when pissed off you breathe in and out through your mouth, hea-vi-ly
Bear-like creature: You have hair on your back, hair on your butt, hair on the top of your feet. Partners think its disgusting, and sometimes you moan really mournfully about it
Tasteless racial stereotype alien: You regularly do an impression of a Jamaican accent, or any other ethnic minority, that instantly offends everybody and anybody listening
If any of these is you, applications will be gratefully received by Disney HQ.
