Michael Moore, in bitter divorce, brings in Ari Emanuel

“Fahrenheit 9/11” director Michael Moore plans to bring his superagents, Ari Emanuel and Mort Janklow, into a Michigan courtroom to help in his divorce.

Emanuel is the William Morris Endeavor chief who inspired the Ari Gold character in “Entourage.” Janklow is the literary agent who made the deals for Moore’s books: “Dude, Where’s My Country?” “Stupid White Men,” and “Downsize This! Random Threats from an Unarmed American.”

Both men are on Moore’s witness list for next month’s trial to determine how to split the tens of millions of dollars worth of assets amassed during Moore’s 23-year marriage to Kathleen Glynn, a fellow native of Flint, Mich., who produced some of the roly-poly provocateur’s documentaries.

The agents can testify about Moore’s earnings, his unique niche in the media and how badly he was damaged when Glynn “unilaterally wasted a large percentage of the marital funds” building a mansion on northern Michigan’s Torch Lake.

Court documents posted on The Smoking Gun list nearly 300 exhibits, including six stories from 2011 that mocked the Occupy Wall Street supporter over the luxurious vacation mansion, which one story called “Moore’s $2M hypocrite house.”

The couple owns eight other properties in Michigan and New York, including a Manhattan condo created by joining three separate units.

But no asset is too small to argue over. Since Glynn is a quilter and runs a Facebook page titled “The Daily Stitch,” Moore asked for a “list, with photographs, of all quilts in your possession.”

In a hint at how acrimonious the split has become, Moore also demanded that Glynn disclose whether she had ever hired a private investigator to “follow, record [or] photograph” him.

Neither Emanuel nor Janklow could be reached for comment.
