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 Game of Thrones finale provided HBO with the perfect opportunity to tease the channel’s future. Namely, to offer a first look at season three of Westworld.

The trailer focuses on new cast member Aaron Paul, who’s also joined by Lena Waithe, although a familiar face does appear: Evan Rachel Wood’s Dolores.

Last season’s finale had seen the character smuggle her and several other hosts’s consciousnesses out of the Westworld park and into the real world.

When asked if the hosts will be able to function in the same way in the real world away from the maintenance they continually received in the park, co-showrunner Lisa Joy told The Independent: “I have a season coming up for you.”

Whatever happens, Joy also teased that season 3 will be “a very different” Westworld, hinting that the majority of scenes will take place back in the real world.

Westworld season 3 is set to debut in 2020.
