Battle for Barbarella

 mce_src=SIENNA MILLER, JESSICA ALBA and KATHERINE HEIGL are all in the running to be the new Barbarella.

The threesome are the current favourites with the film’s producers to step into the famous silver boots for the role of the space-age sex siren made famous by JANE FONDA in the 1968 classic.

A film insider said: “The script is underway and JOHN CARPENTER is set to direct so it’s all about finding the new Barbarella.

“This will be a huge movie and with Barbarella such a strong female character, half the leading ladies in Hollywood will want this role.

“Sienna, Jessica and Katherine are probably top of the list but others have not been ruled out.

“Whoever gets it is going to have to look super-hot in not very much clothing!”
