"Woody Harrelson has signed to star in forthcoming HBO political movie Game Change. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Harrelson will play Steve Schmidt, John McCain&amp;#039;s senior campaign strategist and advisor in the forthcoming TV project. The film, based on John Heilemann and Mark Halperin&amp;#039;s book of the same name, tells the story of the 2008 presidential race and centres on McCain&amp;#039;s story in particular, as well as his eventual defeat to Barack Obama.  Ed Harris recently landed the role of McCain in the film. Julianne Moore previously signed to play McCain&amp;#039;s campaign running mate and former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin. Jay Roach is helming the project from a script by Danny Strong. The pair also collaborated on the Emmy-winning HBO movie Recount, which centred on the 2000 US Presidential election.
