BELLAIRE, Mich. — Filmmaker Michael Moore has filed for divorce after 21 years of marriage to Kathleen Glynn, his collaborator on the Oscar-winning "Bowling for Columbine" and other projects.

Moore filed a divorce complaint June 17 in Michigan's Antrim County, where the couple has a lakefront home. It says their relationship has broken down and "there remains no reasonable likelihood that the marriage can be preserved."

Clerk of Court Sheryl Guy said Monday that Glynn has not filed a response.

A final hearing is scheduled for Sept. 10.

Moore and Glynn married in Flint in 1991. Glynn is listed as producer or executive producer for many of Moore's hard-hitting documentary films, including "Fahrenheit 9/11," "Sicko" and "Capitalism: A Love Story."

They did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment.
