"Diane Lane&amp;apos;s husband has never been unfaithful.\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t f*** around on my wife,&amp;quot; Josh Brolin tells Playboy in its October issue.  &amp;quot;I mean, check her out, man.  My relationship with my wife is fantastic.&amp;quot;\r\nMarried to actress Lane since 2004, Brolin, 42, was the target of cheating rumors when he was photographed kissing actress Marley Shelton, his costar in the flick Grindhouse.\r\nPHOTOS: Stars caught in cheating scandals\r\n&amp;quot;Marley is my wife&amp;apos;s and my great friend,&amp;quot; the actor explains of the pic. &amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m an extremely affectionate guy...Marley and I were out together, turned around and saw there were cameras. That&amp;apos;s it.&amp;quot;\r\nJokes Brolin: &amp;quot;Next time I see that camera guy, I&amp;apos;m going to give some guy a good smack on the lips and then hopefully it will be &amp;apos;Josh Brolin is gay&amp;apos; instead of that I&amp;apos;m f***ing around on my wife.&amp;quot;\r\nBrolin and Lane, 45, also hit headlines back in December 2004 when he was arrested for spousal battery just four months after their wedding; Lane eventually called the incident a &amp;quot;misunderstanding.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I feel rage about that,&amp;quot; Brolin admits of the surprising arrest. &amp;quot;I feel I&amp;apos;ve gotten to a point where I can&amp;apos;t explain it, defend it or compensate for it. I can&amp;apos;t say, &amp;apos;No, I&amp;apos;m actually a really good guy and that didn&amp;apos;t happen.&amp;apos; Everybody knows what happened because it&amp;apos;s all out there.&amp;quot;\r\nHe continues about the fight: &amp;quot;I talked big, she said &amp;apos;F*** you&amp;apos; and called the cops, and somebody had to go to jail. This will be there for the rest of my life. That f***ing sucks. It&amp;apos;s been so disruptive to our lives. It&amp;apos;s also post-O.J., and that horrifies us both. It kills me, man. It kills me.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nIn his Playboy interview, the star also offers his thoughts on another Hollywood couple: his dad James Brolin and wife Barbra Streisand.  &amp;quot;The fact that he got together with her and found this solace is such a coup and so wonderful,&amp;quot; he gushes of the pair, who wed in 1998. &amp;quot;The guy was so frigging unhappy and lonely. She&amp;apos;s always like, &amp;apos;Come over. We&amp;apos;ll have cake or cocktails or soup or ice cream.&amp;apos; I love her and I love what they&amp;apos;ve created together. I say thank God for her.&amp;quot;\r\nBrolin also defends the acting prowess of Megan Fox, his costar in Jonah Hex. &amp;quot;What Megan has done is confuse everybody thoroughly,&amp;quot; he says of Fox, 24. &amp;quot;To me, she&amp;apos;s doing something more interesting than what a lot of other young people in movies are doing.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nHe even compares Fox to a classic movie actress. &amp;quot;Katharine Hepburn, one of the most appreciated actresses today, was hated back in her heyday. She was box office poison&amp;#x2026;They didn&amp;apos;t understand her. Yet now we all look back and go, &amp;apos;Okay, she was incredible,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; he says.\r\nBrolin hopes to help Fox find work with his own film production company. &amp;quot;I would love to be the person who puts Megan in a film in which she can actually do something interesting.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
