Todd Haynes and Julianne Moore to reunite?

Deadline tells all:

“Mildred Pierce” executive producer and director Todd Haynes has re-teamed with the HBO miniseries' executive producers John Wells and Christine Vachon for another period HBO project -- drama series “Dope.”

Just like “Mildred Pierce,” which starred Oscar winner Kate Winslet, an A-list feature actress, Julianne Moore, is circling “Dope,” which is based on Sara Gran's novel.

Haynes would potentially direct the project, now in development, from a script by Gran who adapted her book.

Dope takes place in New York around 1950 and centers on a woman who re-enters her life after being away at the farm to treat her heroin addiction and becomes a private eye.

“Dope” would extend Moore's relationship with HBO. She stars in the pay-cable network's upcoming film about the 2008 presidential election, “Game Change,” portraying former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Julianne Moore will play Sarah Palin?

Via Variety:

Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin? You betcha.

The actress has been cast to play the former Alaska governor in HBO's telepic "Game Change," an examination of Arizona Sen. John McCain's failed 2008 presidential campaign. No other casting has been set.

Movie is based on the book of the same name by authors John Heilemann and Mark Halperin. Jay Roach is attached to direct a script from Danny Strong, who previously penned HBO's Roach-helmed "Recount," the story behind the 2000 controversial election of George W. Bush over Al Gore.

Roach will exec produce via his Everyman Pictures shingle. No timetable has been announced for when the film will go into production.

Pay cabler has delved into the political arena with its original films on a number of occasions, including "Recount," which explored the disputed George W. Bush-Al Gore presidential election of 2000, and "The Special Relationship," which centered on the friendship between President Bill Clinton and British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
