Filmmaker Michael Moore, fresh from his Oscar night bashing of President Bush, will be financed in his next movie project – explaining how Osama bin Laden was enriched by the Bush family – by none other than Walt Disney, reports Daily Variety.

Disney subsidiary Miramax is providing millions in bridge financing for "Fahrenheit 911," Moore's documentary on what happened to the U.S. since Sept. 11. The movie is set for release before the 2004 presidential election.

The director claims he will document on film how the "senior Bush kept his ties with the bin Laden family up until two months after Sept. 11."

Mel Gibson's Icon Productions abruptly dropped the financing deal it made right after Moore won the Oscar for "Bowling for Columbine" and assailed Bush's Iraqi invasion.

Miramax is stopping short from saying the studio will be the movie's distributor.
