Entertaiment Wise has compiled a list of what they consider to be the hottest and sexiest [leather-rocking heroines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsaks-cassie-sb) in recent films. The list was inspired by actress Sienna Miller’s upcoming movie “GI Joe: Rise of Cobra.”

A scorching hot Miller plays a leather-clad, ass-kicking and heat-packing crime-fighter in the film.

The sizzling Miller follows in the footsteps of other super hot crime-fighting sirens such as the [femme fatale assassin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-mxxxxxx) Angelina Jolie in "Mr.and Mrs. Smith," the smooth and super sexy Carrie Ann Moss in "The Matrix" and my two favorite leather-rocking chicks: Charlize Theron in "Aeon Flux" and Halle Berry as the hottest Catwoman I have ever seen.

The gallery also includes other amazing leather-rocking chicks such as Alicia Silverstone, jessica Biel, Kate Beckinsale and Jennifer Gardner.

Sienna’s film is scheduled for an August 2009 release.
