I have not heard of her, but I wish her to break many legs at Studio 54 :)

I still wonder if they might extend the show since nothing looks like it'll go into Studio 54 for a while.

I think she is actually going to be great in this part.

I couldn't stand her in After Miss Julie (while I loved the play itself). However, I think she'll be fantastic in this role and I'm excited to see how she does!

Sorry Lindsay.

Never heard of her. As much as some of us complain about stunt casting, I'm a little disappointed. I was expecting someone really exciting.

She's a very average actress. I'm surprised people haven't heard of her, she's done broadway and quite a few movies but is probably best known for her relationship with jude law

Sienna Miller is lovely, and she's got a really nice voice. Great casting!

I, for one, LOVE this. I thought she was spectacular in the otherwise "eh" Factory Girl. And I loved AFTER MISS JULIE.

Ooooooooh, I'm excited! I think this is absolutely brilliant. I have no doubt she's going to be stunning!

Sienna Miller is currently co-starring alongside Bradley Cooper in the feature film "American Sniper," directed by Clint Eastwood. She is a phenomenal actress.

I thought that Snookie had a chance... oh well

Couldn't they find someone more uninteresting?

Seriously, anyone saying she is 'average' as an actress hasn't seen American Sniper. This is really exciting.

She was very good in American Sniper but this casting does nothing for me. If anything, I'm happy that I don't have to go back a third time, which I don't think is what they want out of her casting. :P

I only know her as the person who dated Jude Law.

No I haven't seen american sniper, and she may actually be good in it, but I highly doubt she's gone from average to phenomenal (hyperbole me thinks) in one movie

I don't think she actually gets enough credit as an actress, she was dogged for so many years with just being 'Jude Law's girlfriend' and fashionista that she ended up in crappy projects. This should be interesting, she was fantastic in American Sniper. I'm quite amazed some people have never heard of her.

I have mixed feelings on this casting. First and foremost I am disappointed because I was actually hoping Lindsay Lohan would pan out. Not because I would love to see the possible train wreck everyone would be expecting, but rather I think she would probably do an amazing job. She is a modern day Sally Bowles, and I would love to see her take on Sally because of this. We already know she can sing, and deep down I think she still has some acting chops, or at least she can use the role as therapy.

I do have to give Roundabout credit though for being able to keep A/A- List Hollywood talent and not reverting to B list actresses, has beens, or reality stars, which Lohan would technically be. I am surprised how much of a dream role Sally Is, that actresses that would normally be doing theater for the career boost (if exposure they would get come award season), are instead acting as replacements.

Although I do find it weird they would get Sienna for only 6 weeks when she would likely be missing half a week for the Oscars. As well as not trying to extend the production into the summer or at least July, since no matter what Studio 54 has to be shut down for refurbishments to change the Kit Kat Club back into Studio 54. I guess they must have a big play coming in May/June with some TV star, alla Jim Parsons in Harvey, since Hollywood based TV stars are available for an economically run of a new production from April thru early August.

How do people not know who Sienna Miller is? How about you google her instead of posting here that you don't know who she is and looking like an idiot?

If anything, you should know that she starred in Roundabout's production of After Miss Julie in 2009.

I was hoping to forget about After Miss Julie....the only redeemable quality of the production was the amazing lighting design.

[ray-andallthatjazz86]

Yeah, Miller has been around for a while and has worked on stage on and off for years. She isn't a bad actress, I just think she's incredibly boring and there's usually 10 other people I'd rather see play the roles she plays.

Studio 54 must be taking Terese Raquin with Keira Knightley. That is slated to start October 1st and open October 29th, while Noises Off is slated to start Dec 17, opening Jan 14. I doubt they can both go into the American Airlines, unless Terese Raquin is an EXTREMELY short run.
