Julianne Moore is to portray one-time U.S. vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin in a new TV biopic.
The Kids Are All Right redhead is the odd choice to play the former Alaska Governor in Game Change.
The Jay Roach film, which is based on John Heilemann and Mark Halperin's book of the same name, chronicles the story of Arizona Senator John McCain's 2008 presidential run.
McCain picked Palin as his running mate and many pundits still believe the decision cost him the election. Barack Obama and Joe Biden won the race for the White House.
The Kids Are All Right was the last time that we saw Moore on the big screen - the role of Jules earnt her a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination.
With 30 Rock and As the World Turns the actress has mixed and match her movie roles with TV but she is currently filming Another Bullshit Night In Suck City.
She has already completed work on Crazy, Stupid Love and Innocence is in the pipeline.
