Billy Zane says the best-looking leading man is “The Godfather” himself, Marlon Brando … which he says is an endorsement of his own A-list looks.

We caught up with the actor at LAX on Thursday and asked him about his upcoming movie “Waltzing with Brando” … and, Billy says it was a blast to film — and, he even stole some wardrobe from the set that he liked.

Zane says Brando sits above any star in H’wood when it comes to best-looking leading men … wistfully saying, “What a mug” when reflecting on MB’s iconic face.

It’s sort of a self-compliment, too … after all, Zane looks enough like Brando to play the guy in a movie — and, he says an outlet even put up a pic of him from “Waltzing with Brando” instead of the two-time Oscar winner.

Zane had to cut our convo a little short to take a phone call with his daughter and catch his flight … but, not before answering one more question about why his name isn’t immediately thrown out next to Brando’s on the Hollywood hotties list.

Maybe “Waltzing with Brando” — out September 19 — will change all that!
