The filmmaker who force fed himself McDonald’s for a month in order to blast a gunshot-sized hole in corporate world with the 2004’s “Super Size Me” is now busy documenting the hunt for Osama bin Laden.
“We’ve definitely got the holy grail,” Morgan Spurlock’s New York-based director of photography on the project, Daniel Marracino, told Variety magazine.
Spurlock plans to edit nearly 800 hours of digital footage into a feature-length documentary in time to screen at the Toronto Film Festival, an annual event held in September.
The Weinstein Co., set to release Michael Moore’s “SiCKO” in the U.S. at the end of this month, has also secured the North American rights to release Spurlock’s film about bin Laden, a terrorist who took credit for the 9/11 attacks.
