Julianne Moore to Star in New HBO Series Dope?
Julianne Moore will be playing Sarah Palin in HBO's adaptation of Game Change, based on the Mark Halperin and John Heilemann book that details the 2008 US presidential election. Deadline is reporting that Moore could be extending her time at HBO as it appears that a new Todd Hayes project could land Moore as the lead. The project in question is Dope; a novel written by Sara Gran that tells the story of Josephine "Joe" Flannigan, a heroin addict who decides to get clean and turns to private eye work to get by. Set in 1950s New York the streets are full of dope (as the title of the novel suggests) making this decision to work in a business surrounded by drugs all the more precarious.
