Left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore is known for asking difficult questions and exploring topics that others wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole. In keeping with his audacious filmography, the director is making a sequel to his controversial and thought-provoking documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11. Overture Films will distribute the film in the United States.

Moore is currently at work on the as yet untitled follow up to his most famous film, which is recorded as the highest grossing documentary ever made. The new doc will pick up where its predecessor left off, deeper into the Bush administration, where the embattled President's approval rating is at an all time low and the economy is in crisis as the country shows no signs of ending the war with Iraq.

Moore hopes to have the film ready for next year's Cannes Film Fest and/or a spring wide release. For those who share Moore's anti-Bush sentiment, the best thing about this film is that the release date comes after Bush will have left office.
