Sodium in liquid ammonia reacts with aniline and methylaniline at room temperature to form the strongly basic salts sodium anilide and sodium methylanilide and flammable hydrogen gas (W.C. Fernelius and G.W. Watt, Chem. Rev. 1937, 20, 195-258). Alkali earth metals dissolved in ammonia are expected to react with aromatic amines in a similar way.
