Sienna finds a new Guy... but it's her co-star in Warhol film

The Sienna Miller and Jude Law romance has been on-again, off-again more times than most of us care.

But has the actress finally found herself a new fellow?

Well, no, because this is Sienna in her latest film role as Sixties wild child Edie Sedgwick - strolling alongside actor Guy Pearce as her friend Andy Warhol.

Factory Girl charts Edie's rise and tragic fall through a turbulent childhood to style icon and artist's muse before she died of a drug overdose at just 28.

Insiders claim first rushes of the movie are so good that studio bosses are planning an all-out Oscar push.

Miller has been filming final scenes in New York, one week after it was reported she had finally split for good from Law.

One insider claimed the couple had decided they had "fundamental differencesî in their approach to life.

But the Jude and Sienna merry-goround does not end there.

This weekend it was claimed that the couple have booked a romantic safari getaway after Christmas to get their love affair back on track.

The 24-year-old actress has confessed she became "totally obsessedî by Sedgwick, spending the best part of a year researching her life.

"Actually, I didn't want to let her go,î she admits. But her mother convinced her to take a holiday and unwind.

"She said: "You've got to stop this now,'î reveals Sienna. "I took myself off to Mexico on my own for a week and just chilled out, but it was several more weeks before Edie escaped my system. I think there's still a bit of her in me.' The role of Warhol is another departure for Australian actor Pearce, 39, who made his name in the Australian soap Neighbours.

He then became that rare thing - a soap star who goes on to win fame in Hollywood.

He made his breakthrough appearance as a transvestite in Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert then starred in LA Confidential, in which appeared alongside Kevin Spacey and Kim Basinger.

Other roles include Memento and Rules Of Engagement.
