"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."
"Russell Crowe has issued a candid review of Gladiator II, doubling down on his previous remarks that the creative team behind the film missed the mark. Crowe, 61, led Ridley Scott's original Gladiator in 2000, alongside Joaquin Phoenix. His incomparable portrayal of the stoic and loyal Maximus, Rome's powerful general leader during the 2nd century AD, earned him the 2001 Academy Award for Best Actor."
"Months before the sequel's November 2024 debut, the Kiwi actor admitted that he was slightly uncomfortable with the fact they're making another one. Because, of course, I'm dead and I have no say in what gets done, he told Consequence's Kyle Meredith. At the end of the first movie, his character dies after succumbing to wounds sustained in a final duel with his enemy, Commodus (Phoenix)."
The Independent emphasizes reporting across issues from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech, sending journalists to develop stories and produce documentaries like 'The A Word'. The outlet highlights investigations into political financing and argues for paywall-free access, funded by donations from those who can afford it. Russell Crowe reiterated criticism of Gladiator II, saying the creative team missed the mark. Crowe, who won the 2001 Academy Award for portraying Maximus in the 2000 original, expressed discomfort about a sequel given his character's death and maintained his stance on the sequel's shortcomings.
