Move over, Tina Fey.

Someone is going to give Tina Fey a run for her money.

Saturday Night Live may have turned Sarah Palin’s 2008 run for the vice presidency into comedy gold, but HBO will put a more dramatic spin on Sarah as Julianne Moore plays her in “Game Change,” the network’s new movie about Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign.

Based on the book by Mark Halperin and John Hellemann, the project will bring together writer Danny Strong and director Jay Roach, who both worked on HBO’s 2008 movie “Recount,” a political drama about the 2000 presidential election that was produced by Kevin Spacey.
