Just released: Amanda Seyfried and Shirley MacLaine, 82, are a couple of unlikely pals in new film The Last Word, the first trailer for which was released Thursday

The film - which is set for release next year - was where Amanda, 30, reconnected with her co-star Thomas Sadoski, 40 and fell in love.

The couple are now having a baby together but Thomas is only seen briefly in the trailer, playing Shirley's boss.

The real focus is not the two lovebirds, but the growing and very unexpected friendship between Shirley's character and Amanda.

The veteran actress plays retired business woman Harriet Lawler, a control freak who has done a good job of alienating people her entire life.

Her boss is Amanda's real life baby daddy but Thomas appears for just a second so it is not clear yet if art imitates life and he falls for Amanda's character.

The Last World will premiere at Sundance next year before coming to theatres in March.

By that time Amanda will be very pregnant with what may be her little boy as the star referred to her first child as a 'him' during a recent interview.
