HBO has set premiere dates for its two big-ticket political projects filmed in Maryland last year.

"Game Change," the made-for-TV movie starring Ed Harris as John McCain and Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin, will premiere March 10, according to Stuart Levine in the Hollywood trade publication Variety.

"VEEP," the half-hour political satire that finished filming its first season in December in the Baltimore area, will debut April 22. It stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Tony Hale.

The dates are expected to be formally announced Friday during HBO's promotional session with the TV press in Pasadena.

UPDATE: HBO confirmed the dates in a press release at noon Friday.
