A guy who once won an Emmy for playing a serial killer just got killed off his own movie -- and we hear it got so ugly, cops had to haul his ass off the set.
Sources tell TMZ Pruitt Taylor Vince was starring and directing a movie in Louisiana called "Cameraman," when he got into a war with the movie's producer -- David Newton Cole -- over their artistic visions for the movie.
Our sources say the war went nuclear when Cole finally snapped and fired Vince in front of the entire crew -- and then had cops escort Vince's ass off the set.
We spoke to Cole, who told us: "Neither of us would compromise his artistic vision, and I am the producer so that is that. That's why they call it show business and not show art."
Cole immediately brought in a new director to replace Vince and finish the movie -- but so far nothing's been done to heal the gaping hole in Vince's dignity.

Kanye West's lawyer went to court today and won a delay for West's arraignment for smashing a photog's gear.
The famous Blair Berk reps Kanye, who is charged with vandalism, battery and grand theft -- stemming from a tussle with two photogs at LAX last year. Kanye's manager, Don Crowley, is also charged with two counts of vandalism, two counts of battery and two counts of grand theft. He's repped by prominent defense attorney Shawn Chapman Holley, who wore a yellow pinstriped pant suit to court -- with a necklace.
Bond on both defendants was exonerated because they do not have criminal records and promised to appear for their arraignments.
The incident occurred on September 11, 2008. A TMZ cameraman captured the confrontation ... Kanye can clearly be seen smashing the photog's flash to the ground.
Kanye could get up to 2 1/2 years in jail if convicted on all counts. Crowley could get five years.
Berk and Holley could end up squaring off with TMZ, since our camera got wrecked during the attack. We're only slightly scared...

Sienna Miller kicked up her heels yesterday -- to let a photog have it!
The "Factory Girl" star was headed into a NYC building when she was ambushed by flashes, but instead of her usual smile and duck technique, Miss Miller opted for a camera shove perfected by her ex, Jude Law.
Sienna's technique scores a 7 on the freakout scale, but she definitely loses style points for wearing white boots with black jeans.
