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.

The final trailer for It Chapter 2 has been released, teasing out the chilling events that will unfold when the movie debuts in less than two months.

James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain, Bill Hader, Jay Ryan, Isaiah Mustafa, Andy Bean and James Ransone are seen returning to the town of Derry, Maine, as the Losers Club reconvenes.

The sequel, which is based on Stephen King's novel It, takes place 27 years after the events depicted in the first instalment released in 2017.

Having confronted Pennywise the Dancing Clown (played by Bill Skarsgård) as children, all five members of the Losers Club are now attempting to put an end to his evil deeds for good.

The newly released trailer includes an especially chill-inducing sequence in which James McAvoy is trapped in a house of mirrors, trying to rescue a young boy while Pennywise threatens to attack.

In addition to the adult cast, Jaeden Martell, Sophia Lillis, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Finn Wolfhard, Chosen Jacobs, Jack Dylan Grazer and Wyatt Oleff will reprise their respective roles as as Bill Denbrough, Beverly Marsh, Ben Hanscom, Richie Tozier, Mike Hanlon, Eddie Kaspbrak and Stan Uris.
