Saturday Night Live has royal plans for a possible vice presidential debate sketch: they've booked Queen Latifah to play moderator Gwen Ifill. 

"If we do a VP debate sketch, Queen Latifah is lined up to play Gwen Ifill," an SNLrep confirmed to PEOPLE Friday. 

Ifill, who moderated Thursday's vice presidential debate between Governor Sarah Palin and Senator Joseph Biden, is managing editor of PBS's Washington Weekand senior correspondent for The News Hour with Jim Lehrer.

Because the SNL lineup is not finalized until shortly before airtime, it's still possible a VP debate sketch will not go live. 

In addition to Latifah's possible appearance, Saturday night's SNL will feature host Anne Hathaway and musical guest The Killers.
