Aussie actor Luke Arnold, who’s starring in Michael Bay’s pirate adventure Black Sails, is in negotiations to play late INXS frontman Michael Hutchence in Never Tear Us Apart: The INXS Story, Deadline said.

Shine Australia is producing for Oz’s Seven Network. The two-part, four-hour saga traces the band’s rise and the aftermath of Hutchence’s 1997 death.

Shooting is slated for Melbourne later this year. Arnold is currently in Cape Town playing Long John Silver in Starz’ eight-episode Black Sails that’s set 20 years before the events in Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island.
