What is Deliver Me From Nowhere About? 5 Things to Know About Bruce Springsteen Biopic Starring Jeremy Allen White
Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere is an upcoming Bruce Springsteen biopic starring Jeremy Allen White. The film focuses on the creation of Springsteen's 1982 album Nebraska, which he recorded alone in his New Jersey bedroom using a 4-track recorder.
Scott Cooper directed and wrote the movie, which aims to capture a defining period in Springsteen's career and personal life. 20th Century Studios produced it, which will be released in theaters on October 24, 2025.
The story centers on Springsteen's Nebraska album
The biopic doesn't cover Springsteen's entire life, it zeroes in on a key moment in the early 1980s. The film is based on Warren Zanes' book Deliver Me from Nowhere, which documents how Nebraska came to life. The album was stripped-down and raw, a contrast to Springsteen's previous arena-rock sound.
According to Springsteen, it was made during a time when he was also working on Born in the U.S.A. and going through personal struggles. He told Variety, 'It's '81, '82, and centered around the creation of that particular record while I was simultaneously recording Born in the USA and also going through some personal difficulties that I've been living with my whole life.'
Jeremy Allen White leads a strong cast
Jeremy Allen White, best known for The Bear, stars as Bruce Springsteen. Springsteen praised White's portrayal, saying in an interview with SiriusXM, 'He sings well. He sings very well…Jeremy is such a terrific actor that you just fall right into it. He's got an interpretation of me that I think the fans will deeply recognize.'
The cast also includes Jeremy Strong as Springsteen's longtime manager Jon Landau, Paul Walter Hauser as recording engineer Mike Batlan, Odessa Young as Springsteen's love interest Faye, Stephen Graham as his father Douglas Springsteen, and Gaby Hoffmann as his mother Adele.
The first trailer highlights key emotional beats
The trailer, released on June 18, shows Jeremy Allen White's Springsteen recording in solitude, performing live, and dealing with family tensions. A standout moment features Landau (Jeremy Strong) telling a Columbia Records exec, 'This is not about the charts. This is about Bruce Springsteen. And these are the songs he wants to work on right now.'
The trailer closes with White performing Born to Run, sweat-soaked under stage lights, saying, 'I'm trying to find something real in all the noise.'
Scott Cooper brings film to life
Director Scott Cooper is known for his Oscar-winning film Crazy Heart starring Jeff Bridges. Cooper not only directed but also wrote the screenplay, working closely with Springsteen and Landau, who were actively involved in the film's production. The project is backed by 20th Century Studios, with producers including Scott Stuber and Ellen Goldsmith-Vein.
Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere release date
Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere is scheduled for theatrical release on October 24, 2025. Springsteen visited the set during production, including a shoot in Bayonne, New Jersey, where the team recreated the moment he bought his first car, a Chevrolet Z28 Camaro. With early Oscar buzz for Jeremy Allen White and an emotional focus on one of Springsteen's most vulnerable creative periods, the film is already generating strong interest from both moviegoers and Springsteen fans.

Adnan Sami HITS Back At Pakistan Trolls: ‘You Didn't Celebrate Me, India Did'
Last Updated: Adnan Sami calls backlash over Indian citizenship 'ex-lover syndrome,' saying critics haven't moved on. Says his issue was with Pakistan's govt, not people. Renowned singer-composer Adnan Sami may have embraced Indian citizenship nearly a decade ago, but his decision continues to attract a barrage of online criticism, especially from across the border. Despite having moved to India in 2001 and being granted Indian citizenship in 2016, the UK-born artist—who once held Pakistani and Canadian citizenship—says he's still being reminded of where he 'originally came from." In a recent conversation with Bollywood Bubble, the Tera Chehra hitmaker opened up about the lingering hate he receives on social media, especially from Pakistan. Comparing it to an emotionally unresolved breakup, Adnan said, 'It's like an ex-lover. When an ex-lover sees you moving on and getting involved with somebody else, they'll always come up with reasons to hate you. But the reason why they actually do that is because they still haven't gotten over you. It's love, and love manifests in many absurd ways." He described the backlash as a 'classic case of sour grapes," explaining that the resentment stems from a place of jealousy rather than rationality, 'It is ridiculous for anyone from anywhere to presume that they know what the reasons were behind it. There were solid reasons." While migration across borders is a common phenomenon globally, Sami believes the criticism aimed at him is unique to the India-Pakistan rivalry, 'At the end of the day, you can argue and say, 'People are migrating all over the world all the time. Why don't they have issues with them?' First of all, because of the geopolitical nature between India and Pakistan, there is a rivalry between the two for whatever reason. But more than that, it is the ex-lover syndrome." Addressing the frequently blurred lines between the people and the political leadership of Pakistan, Adnan drew a distinction, 'That's just the tip of the iceberg. However, let me make it very clear, my audience and people over there have always been very loving. And they still are, and I love them very much even today. I'm very grateful to them for all the love that they've given me." He reiterated that his long-standing frustration was with the Pakistani government, not its citizens, 'My issues have always been with the Pakistani government." Despite being a globally known artist with a catalogue of hits to his name, Adnan revealed that the Pakistani government never recognised his contributions, 'They never acknowledged my work or honoured me in any way. That's just the tip of the iceberg." For Adnan, the greatest reward has always been emotional rather than institutional, 'For an artiste, the biggest nourishment is love. So, from whichever corner of the world they get that love, they will be very grateful for it. My music is for everybody. I have not put any boundaries on my music. You want to listen to it? Most welcome. You don't want to? Thanks for trying." First Published: June 20, 2025, 22:06 IST

Here Is Why Simone Ashley's Role In F1 Did Not Make It To The Final Cut
In the sports drama F1, Simone Ashley was cast in an important supporting role and the announcement of her being a part of the film was made last year. Simone Ashley's character in the upcoming sports drama F1 was expected to be her big breakthrough role. In an unexpected development, it has now emerged that her entire role has been edited out of the film. Joseph Kosinski, the director of the Brad Pitt starrer, revealed that her role did not make it to the final cut. During the same chat, he also expressed his wish to work with the actress again. In an interview with People, Joseph Kosinski said, 'It happens on every film, where you have to shoot more than you can use. There were two or three storylines that ultimately didn't make it into the final cut." Further, the filmmaker lauded Simone, calling her 'an incredible talent, incredible actress, incredible singer." Moving ahead, he also expressed his wish to collaborate with Simone again as he added, 'I would love to work with her again." Simone Ashley's popularity skyrocketed after her role in Netflix shows Sex Education and Bridgerton. In the sports drama F1, she was cast in an important supporting role and the announcement of her being a part of the film was made last year. However, the first teaser and trailer of the film had no glimpses of Simone and fans were quick to notice her absence. In July 2024, Variety confirmed Simone Ashley's involvement in Joseph Kosinski's F1. The actress was spotted shooting at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone Circuit in Northampton, England and the details about her role in the film were under wraps. Earlier this year, in May, Simone Ashley spoke to Elle about her experience of working in the most anticipated film. She said, 'I have a very small part, but I'm grateful to be in that movie. I got to experience many Grand Prix. I don't think I'll ever do anything like that again." While it seems Simone Ashley will not be seen in FI, the actress is yet to comment on the development. Set against the thrilling backdrop of Formula One, the high-octane drama will be released in theatres on June 27.

Bad Bunny Asks Fans To Lower Their Expectation For His Tour: ‘I'm Not Taylor Swift'
Last Updated: Unlike Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, Bad Bunny will not pay tribute to all of his albums in his upcoming tour. Bad Bunny is gearing up to kick off his much-awaited world tour in November this year. Following the release of his sixth album, Debi Tirar Mas Fotos, the Puerto Rican singer is going on an all-stadium world tour. Before welcoming his fans, the singer compared himself with Taylor Swift and asked fans to keep their expectations low. During an interview with Variety, Bad Bunny referred to the Eras Tour and stated that unlike Taylor Swift, he would not be able to pay tribute to all of his albums. He further revealed that his tour would not be as organised as the Grammy-winning singers. 'First of all, I'm not Taylor Swift," the singer stated, asking his fans to not expect a tour like Taylor's Eras Tour. 'It's not going to be organised that way. It's very much a tour for Debi, with some older songs sprinkled in." The 31-year-old singer further clarified that there would be no concert films like the Eras Tour Movie, but they would shoot the concert solely for the memories, as the singer's main aim is to create memories and share emotions with the fans. Bad Bunny's highly anticipated world tour is on its way to breaking records as he sold tickets worth 2.6 million USD across shows in Latin America, Europe and Australia. His upcoming world tour is set to kick off on November 21 in the Dominican Republic, and after that he will make stops in Costa Rica and Mexico in December before resuming in January in Latin American countries. By the end of February, the singer is expected to conclude his shows in Brazil and Australia for the first time ever and make his concert debut in Japan by the end of March. Between May and July, the singer is expected to tour Europe, making stops in Portugal, Spain, Germany, France and other countries. Before embarking on his extensive world tour, Bad Bunny is set to perform a 30-date residency in Puerto Rico. The performance at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico Jose Miguel Agrelot is expected to draw an estimated 250,000 fans to the island. First Published:
