Julianne Moore is once again proving her incredible acting abilities by playing former Alaska governor Sarah Palin in the HBO film Game Change.

The 51-year-old four-time Oscar-winning actress stars opposite Ed Harris as John MCCain and Woody Harrelson as adviser Steve Schmidt.

The film is based on a book with the same title ... that chronicles the actions of both the Republican and Democratic parties during the 2008 race.

Game Change premieres next March.

For starters, the series sounds like something we could fall asleep to, and get this -- Sarah Palin reportedly wants $1 million per episode!

Palin and veteran TV producer Mark Burnett are currently pitching a new series which would follow her husband Todd Palin's career as a championship snowmobile racer, but sources tell Hollywood Reporter that both TLC and A&E (which fought over Sarah Palin's Alaska back in 2010) aren't interested. Though Alaska debuted on TLC with a record-breaking five million viewers, it was not renewed for a second season.

"I think it's safe to say her time has passed," a network insider told THR. And not only that, but $1 million per episode is a lot of money for a show that isn't even on the air yet...

Talk about going rogue.

A new book, The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin, claims the politician cheated on her husband, Todd, with his business partner Brad Hanson in a six-month affair.

When Todd found out about the trysts, he ended the business relationship.

In addition, the book alleges that in 1987, a 20-something Palin had a one-night stand with basketball star Glen Rice while she was a sports reporter and he was playing in a college basketball tournament.

There are also accusations of cocaine use. Supposedly, before Palin became governor of Alaska, she and hubby Todd were into the drug. The book's author, Joe McGinniss, describes an incident in which Palin snorted the drug off of an oil drum.

McGinnis has been working on the unauthorized biography since 2009 -- he even moved into a rental home next to the Palins in Alaska.

As one documentary about Sarah Palin - Undefeated - is set to debut Tuesday, a more critical look at the former Vice Presidential candidate is making the rounds, looking for a distributor.

British filmmaker Nick Broomfield (Kurt & Courtney, Biggie & Tupac) is screening in LA this week and may debut at the Toronto Film Festival in September.

The film features Palin's life and rise to prominence, featuring interviews with her parents, friends, colleagues and former employees. Roll tape ...

In bizarre news of the day, Bristol Palin will star in a new reality show with fellow Dancing With The Stars contestant Kyle Massey and his brother.

Palin, 20, and her son Tripp, 2, will live with Massey, 19, and his brother Chris, 21, in Los Angeles. The show will follow Palin as she moves from Alaska to LA and starts working for a charity. It's scheduled to air later this year in half-hour episodes on the BIO (Biography) channel.

So, why is BIO interested in Bristol? The network's Executive Vice President of Programming says, "Bristol is the kind of personality BIO is drawn to." ... OK. He also said that Bristol and the Massey brothers are "best friends" and that she will be opening up about her real life for "the first time." Other than, you know, the memoir she's publishing in June.

Bristol made an appearance in New York City last week, and the media has since been abuzz with speculation that she might have had plastic surgery. Get the details and more info on the show after the jump.

Tina Fey hosted Saturday Night Live for the third time last night and of course she had to revive everyone's favorite "character," Sarah Palin!

Apparently Sarah Palin is still bitter about the 2008 interview Katie Couric conducted that made Palin appear uniformed, to say the least.

After Couric announced her plans to step down as the CBS Evening News anchor to focus on "multidimensional storytelling," Palin cracked to Fox News:

"Yeah, and I hear that she wants to now engage in more 'multidimensional storytelling' versus I guess just the 'straight on, read into the, that teleprompter screen storytelling.' More power to her. I wish her well in her 'multidimensional storytelling.'"

Meow!

Julianne Moore has been cast to play Sarah Palin the upcoming HBO film Game Change, which is based on the political tell-all book about the 2008 presidential election.

Palin seems a bit bitter about the announcement, telling Fox News host Sean Hannity, "I think I'll just grit my teeth and bear whatever comes what may with that movie." While the flick may not portray the controversial politician in the most positive light, she shouldn't complain about having gorgeous Moore play her onscreen! Of course, Palin does, and she whined to Hannity, "Well, I am all about job creation and I guess I could provide some of these gals who pretend like they're me some job security. I would ask though that - if they're of the mind of spreading the wealth around - that perhaps they want to spring for one of my kid's braces or something as they capitalize on pretending to be me."

Shouldn't she be grateful that she's still even considered relevant? And didn't she make millions of dollars on her book and TV deals?
