New York City, NY :: Actress Sienna Miller, 24, struts her stuff looking fashionable as ever in two different pairs of super-skinny jeans and black-and-white checkboard tops.  Her rumored boyfriend and Factory Girl co-star Hayden Christensen was M.I.A.

Actress Sienna Miller has been granted high security protection on the set of her new movie, Interview, amid fears she may be targeted by Islamic extremists. The film is a remake of Theo Van Gogh’s 2003 thriller and a tribute to Van Gogh, who was murdered by Mohammed Bouyeri in 2004 after his controversial film Submission sparked anger among the Muslim community. Although Interview has no connection to Islam, there are concerns the association with Van Gogh will trigger another outcry. A member of the production team says, ""We are very much aware that it requires a high level of security. ""We will ensure Sienna and her co-star Steve Buscemi are given the sort of protection that this project requires.""

Interview is being filmed in New York City where 24-year-old actress Sienna Miller plays Katya, America’s most popular soap actress.  Can anyone identify either one of the male or female companions Sienna Miller was out and about with yesterday in New York City (pictured above and below)?  My mind is failing me at the moment.  More pictures in the gallery!

UPDATE :: Apologies, images removed!

Factory Girl Synopsis :: A beautiful, wealthy young party girl drops out of Harvard in 1965 and heads to New York to become Holly Golightly. When she meets a hungry young, artist named Andy Warhol, he promises to make her the star she always wanted to be. And like a super nova she explodes on the New York scene only to find herself slowly lose grip on reality."

Here are the first Factory Girl stills of Guy Pearce, 38, as Andy Warhol, Sienna Miller, 24, as Edie Sedgwick and Jimmy Fallon, 31, as Chuck Wein.  No pictures of Hayden Christensen, 24, as Billy Quinn yet…  but stay tuned, I’m sure they’re coming. Bigger pictures in the gallery! ¶ Factory Girl is set for a September 2006 release and I simply cannot wait.  I’m just itching to see this movie. The video below is a collection of clips of the real-life Edie Sedgwick put to the tune of The Velvets’ "After Hours." Check it out and compare it to Sienna Miller’s look as Edie and let me know what you think. I think the Factory Girl set, costumes and casting are terrific.
