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.

Don’t you hate it when you’re trying to get to work but become embroiled in a criminal conspiracy on the underground?

If so, Liam Neeson’s next movie should prove cathartic, seeing the actor ‘play a businessman on his daily commute home who unwittingly gets caught up in a criminal conspiracy,’ according to Deadline. ‘It threatens not only his life but the lives of those around him.’

StudioCanal are behind the picture, having previously teamed with him on previous ‘Liam Neeson shoots things’ films Unknown and Non-Stop.

News of The Commuter comes just days after it emerged that Neeson will also star in a comedy thriller spoofing all these action films he keeps making called The Revenger.

The Oscar-nominated actor did make a return to proper cinema this year though, having just wrapped on the Martin Scorsese-directed film Silence.

Last week, we collected all the movie posters which are just Liam Neeson holding a handgun, of which it turns out there are quite a few.
