Maverick filmmaker Michael Moore is planning to make a new movie about President Bush.

Far from accepting defeat after Bush successfully won re-election, Moore appears ready for the second round of his war of words with the Republican establishment.

Fahrenheit 9/11, which won the Palm d'Or at this year's Cannes Film Festival, made a scathing attack on the ability of George Bush to serve as US president.

Despite the publicity surrounding the film, Moore failed to convince the American people, who backed Bush to serve a second term in this month's presidential election.

"Fifty-one per cent of the American people lacked information and we want to educate and enlighten them," Moore said of the election result.

"They weren't told the truth."

The sequel to Fahrenheit 9/11 could be ready by late 2006.
