Before the final result was announced, the controversial filmmaker released Michael Moore in TrumpLand, a one-man show in Ohio.
Now, Moore returns once more with Fahrenheit 11/9, a reference to the day Trump was declared President of the United States, teaming up once more with Weinstein brothers to release the film.
“No matter what you throw at him, it hasn’t worked,” Moore said. “No matter what is revealed, he remains standing. Facts, reality, brains cannot defeat him. Even when he commits a self-inflicted wound, he gets up the next morning and keeps going and tweeting. That all ends with this movie.”
Previously, Moore released Fahrenheit 9/11, an investigative documentary into the aftermath of the September 11 attacks and the Bush administration. The film won the Palm d’Or in 2004 and is the highest grossing documentary of all time.
Recently, Moore endorsed The Rock for President, calling on the Democrats to run Dwayne Johnson: "Run the Rock! Run the Rock. Who do you want for commander in chief? I want the f**king Rock! It would scare anybody that would hurt us. Think about how safe we would be if the Rock was president. Not Vin Diesel! The Rock.”
This summer, Moore will make his Broadway debut with the solo show The Terms Of My Surrender, with Tony winner Michael Mayer staging the production.
