The Emmy winner currently works with stylist Elizabeth Stewart, who also counts Cate Blanchett and Julia Roberts as clients.
Speaking to host Jimmy Fallon, Seyfried discussed the possibility of a 'Mamma Mia! 3.' Fans have suggested that Sabrina Carpenter star as her character Sophie's daughter.
In 2023, producer Judy Cramer told Deadline that another sequel was 'in its earliest stages,' though nothing 'official' has been planned.
'Somebody said [Carpenter] was a fan of the musicals and they said, 'Couldn't she play your daughter?' Yeah, that would be great. Big fan,' Seyfried said.
The 'Espresso' singer has covered Abba songs on her ongoing 'Short 'n Sweet' tour. The Swedish band's sizable discography serves as the basis for the 'Mamma Mia!' franchise.
Seyfried also shared plot details about her upcoming show, which debuts March 13 on Peacock.
''Long Bright River' is a crime show about this woman who's a cop — I always wanted to play a cop — who works in and around Kensington in Philadelphia,' she explained. 'It's a very specific neighborhood that's been marginalized and feared and we kind of change the perspective.'
Seyfried described the show as a love letter to the city, though it tackles taboo topics like the opioid epidemic and the sex work industry.
'There's a series of murders that she's trying to solve because somebody she loves very dearly could possibly be the next victim,' Seyfried added.
