Moore Planning "Fahrenheit 9/11" Sequel
Posted by reeltalk on 05/14/08 at 12:21 PM

moore.jpgLooks like Mr. Michael Moore is going to follow up his indictment of the U.S. health care system "Sicko" with a follow-up to 2004's "Fahrenheit 9/11."

That film, a scathing critique of the Bush Administration, is the only documentary to ever earn more than $100 million at the box office. Moore's new project plans to examine America's standing in the world nearly seven years after Sept. 11., and with President Bush winding down his second and final term in the Oval Office.

According to Nick Meyer, president of Paramount Vantage, which is co-financing the pic with Overture Films, the film will not be about bashing anyone in particular. But does anyone really believe Michael Moore -- the guy behind "Roger and Me" and "Bowling For Columbine" -- will do a movie about the Iraq War and NOT take shots at the current Administration?

Expect the sequel to "Fahrenheit 9/11" in spring 2009, just after President Bush leaves office. Paramount Vantage and Overture will be marketing the movie to international buyers at Cannes this week.

In case you didn't get to see "Fahrenheit 9/11" or if you just need a little reminder as to the kind of documentary it is, here are some clips!
