"Game Change" star Julianne Moore headlined the 2013 Golden Globe nominees for Best Actress in a Miniseries or TV Movie for her portrayal of Sarah Palin. Other nominees announced Thursday morning included Nicole Kidman for "Hemingway & Gellhorn," Jessica Lange for "American Horror Story," Sienna Miller for "The Girl" and Sigourney Weaver for "Political Animals."

Based on a chronicle of the 2008 presidential campaign written by Jon Heileman and Mark Halperin that HBO adapted for the small-screen, "Game Change" cleaned up at the 2012 Emmys. Moore won a statue for her portrayal of Republican vice presidential nominee Palin and the film won the Emmy for Outstanding Miniseries or Movie.

In her Emmys acceptance speech, Moore took a small swipe at Palin, who had ripped "Game Change." "I feel so validated because Sarah Palin gave me a big thumbs down," she said at the time. Neither Palin nor John McCain were pleased with how they were portrayed in the film.

The 2013 Golden Globe Awards will be co-hosted by another actress who has portrayed Palin, Tina Fey. She and Amy Poehler will preside over the ceremony, which airs live Sunday, January 13 at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.
