The Dune actor was very forthcoming with personal details and also things he learned from other big name celebrities.As far as Travolta, he did good for his pal Brando.Travolta used his ‘Scientology powers’ to ‘heal’ him.’I had been invited to a dinner with John Travolta; Kelly, his gorgeous and uber-pleasant wife; Marlon Brando; a redhead Marlon had met on the internet; my pops and his wife, Barbra (a singer). I was 27 years old and the whole reason I got into acting was because of the early films I had watched starring Marlon and the late James Dean,’ wrote Josh.’Wow. I was going to meet THE Marlon Brando,’ he added.’Marlon arrived late to dinner with a blue dinner jacket, loose slacks, and a scarf around his neck,’ said the ex-husband of Diane Lane.’When he stepped from the car and stood up, he reached down and pulled up his pant leg. Under it was blood running down his leg. He explained that he had stopped to help some people pull their cars from a landslide on the Pacific coast Highway, and when he tried to pull a car out of some mud, it got traction and the bumper hit his leg,’ shared Brolin.'”I just got to the next level!” Travolta yelled from behind a bush, I believe.’Marlon sauntered up to John and John to Marlon and they gave each other an ebullient hug. John excitedly told Marlon how he had just completed a course on healing and that he could help him. John grabbed Marlon softly by the hand and led him inside, toward Barbra’s living room.’By the time I walked in Marlon was on a chaise lounge and John told him to close his eyes. I stood there quietly and left mine open. The book titled From Under The Trucker is out Tuesday from HarperCollins. Seen in 2022’John put his hand on Marlon’s leg, then his other hand on Marlon’s chest. Time passed, quietly. Nobody spoke. I was the person farthest away form them. I watched. Marlon Brando and Danny Zuko. This is insane.’Then Josh said the conversation went like this: ‘How is that? Marlon opened his eyes. Wow. Right? Yeah. I know. It’s really something. Marlon stood up, looking less blanched than before. Wow. Right? Another friend hug. Let’s eat. I had just witnessed John Travolta fix Marlon f***ing Brando!’As far as his stepmother, she told him to take it easy on the booze. He told Howard Stern that when he asked the singer for a glass of wine she said not so fast.’She’s like, “Why would you drink? You’re an alcoholic.”‘Josh added: ‘She was this kind of, like, typical Jewish mother who was like, “You can’t do that because that would hurt you. You know, you gotta eat. You look too skinny”‘Josh said earlier in an interview that he thinks he has ‘more fun’ now he’s sober.The actor has been sober from alcohol since 2013, and Josh admits that it’s changed his life for the better.He told The Sunday Times newspaper: ‘I love being sober. I have more fun.’There’s nothing that I go through that I am absolutely certain wouldn’t be worse if I was drinking.’Josh had a reckoning in 2013, when he woke up on the street after being involved in a fight at a fast food drive-through in Santa Monica. The actor decided there and then that he needed to quit drinking forever. John Travolta in the movie Grease with, from left, Jeff Conaway (as Kenickie), Jamie Donnelly (as Jan), Olivia Newton-John (as Sandy), Kelly Ward (as Putzie), and Stockard Channing (as Rizzo) Marlon Brando sitting opposite Al Pacino in The Godfather, 1972He shared: ‘I knew that was going to be the last time I drank.’Josh subsequently joined Alcoholics Anonymous and he hasn’t looked back since then.The Hollywood star said: ‘I like getting older. It’s like a great excuse to finally go, ‘OK, just mellow out, you don’t need to constantly spin.”Josh previously admitted that he was on a ‘destructive path’ amid his drinking woes.The actor recognized that he needed to ‘change and mature’ when his mom became unwell.Josh – who first found fame as a child, when he starred in the hit movie ‘The Goonies’ – told the Guardian newspaper: ‘It was another turning point.’It made me think of a lot of things. My mom dying when I was in my 20s. All the impact that had on me that I hadn’t moved past; I was always such a mama’s boy. But I realised that I was on a destructive path. I knew that I had to change and mature. It was like I stepped back and saw the hamster wheel.’
