I had tremendous amount of trepidation playing Sarah Palin, says Julianne Moore

Washington, Jan 14 (ANI): Julianne Moore has revealed that she had a tremendous amount of nervousness and fear, playing politician Sarah Palin in 'Game Change.'

The 52-year-old stopped briefly on the red carpet ahead of the Golden Globes and asserted that when one's playing someone so well known in the news, it's a big hurdle to get over, the Huffing ton Post reported.

She also said that they worked really hard and did a lot of research to be as accurate as possible.

Moore's performance as the failed vice presidential candidate earned her a nomination for Best Actress in a Miniseries or TV Movie against Nicole Kidman for 'Hemingway and Gellhorn'; Jessica Lange for 'American Horror Story: Asylum'; Sienna Miller for 'The Girl'; and Sigourney Weaver for 'Political Animals.'
