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.

Almost every year since 1995, Pixar has released a dazzling animated film, nearly all of which have learnt critical acclaim across the board.

Following Cars 3 - which reaches cinemas in June - the studio will release their first non-sequel since The Good Dinosaur, titled Coco.

The upcoming animated adventure - which is inspired by the Mexican holiday Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) - follows an aspiring 12-year-old guitarist named Miguel who idolises musician Ernesto de la Cruz.

Finally, the first trailer has been released by Disney, revealing little information about the film’s plot but teasing beautiful, magical adventure in the Land of the Dead.

Newcomer Anthony Gonzalez voices Miguel, while Babel’s Gael García Bernal voices Hector - a ‘charming trickster’ who helps Miguel discover his family’s mysterious history.

Other cast members include Emmy nominee Benjamin Bratt, best known for his role in Law & Order and having recently starred in Doctor Strange, and Renée Victor of Weeds fame.

Coco reaches cinemas on the 22 November, 2017.
