A-list actor and Aussie heartthrob Hugh Jackman can heat things up on screen with his female co-stars. But his wife of nearly 20 years, actress Deborra-Lee Furness, has a rule - she forbids her husband to work with Angelina Jolie, Entertainment Tonight reports.

In an interview with Australia's Today show, Jackman and Furness were referred to as Australia's "golden couple." A Today show host mentioned that it must be hard to kiss each other goodbye knowing that they're leaving to go lock lips with a co-star. The host then asked if there are any Hollywood stars that are off limits.

"I've told his agent he's not allowed to work with Angelina [Jolie-Pitt]," Furness said. "I'm sure she's nice and I love what she's doing, shining a light on adoption..."

Jackman laughed and called his wife's bluff and she clarified, "I'm just kidding!"

"You know what, it just goes to show that if you get it right and you pick the right partner," Furness said, in all seriousness, "then you traverse all those travails and challenges."

Her hubby chimed in about her other rule, in which the couple are not allowed to go more than two weeks without seeing each other.

"We have never been apart for more than two weeks," he said, "we managed to keep that."

"And we don't want to be," his wife agreed. "He tells really good jokes, I mean, I miss him."

Furness has adoption in common with actress and director Jolie-Pitt, Today reports. Furness and Jackman have two adopted children, and Furness founded Adopt Change after her experience. She has done a lot of work with the organization to remove the "red tape" from the adoption process.
