'Jeremy Allen White was very tolerant of me': Bruce Springsteen on his biopic set visits
Washington DC [US], June 20 (ANI): Singer Bruce Springsteen opened up about watching the shoot of his biopic 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere', revealing that he sometimes avoided "deeply personal" scenes when he would visit the set, reported Variety. "Deliver Me From Nowhere," in which "The Bear" star Jeremy Allen White plays Springsteen, chronicles the making of his 1982 album 'Nebraska.' The record would go on to become one of his most popular works and was made at a time when Springsteen was reconciling his newfound success with the ghosts of his past. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, as quoted by Variety, Springsteen was asked what it's been like to watch someone else play a younger version of him. "I'm sure it's much worse for the actor than for me. Jeremy Allen White was very, very tolerant of me on the days that I would appear on the set," as quoted by Variety. To avoid the problems on sets, Springsteen told White, "Look, anytime I'm in the way, just give me the look and I'm on my way home." He added, "The days that I got out there, he was wonderfully tolerant with me being there. And it was just fun. It was enjoyable," as quoted by Variety. However, the singer admitted that there was "some unusualness" to the process because the biopic "involves, in some ways, some of the most painful days of my life, reported People. When they filmed certain scenes, Springsteen sometimes opted to stay home. "If there was a scene coming up that was sometimes really deeply personal, I wanted the actors to feel completely free, and I didn't want to get in the way, and so I would just stay at home," he said. Springsteen added: "If Scott Cooper, the director, wanted or needed me there for something, I would try to make it. But I was on tour in Canada for the whole first month or so of the filming, and so I was out really out on the road quite a bit and working at that time," as quoted by Variety. 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' released its first trailer on Wednesday and is set to hit theaters on October 24. Alongside White, the movie stars Jeremy Strong as Jon Landau, Springsteen's manager; Stephen Graham as Springsteen's dad Douglas; Paul Walter Hauser as recording engineer Mike Batlan; Odessa Young as Springsteen's love interest Faye; Marc Maron as producer Chuck Plotkin; Johnny Cannizzaro as E Street Band guitarist Steve Van Zandt; Harrison Gilbertson as Springsteen's friend Matt Delia; David Krumholtz as Columbia record executive Al Teller and Chris Jaymes as mastering engineer Dennis King, reported Variety.

‘Hopefully next year sometime': Springsteen hints at Aussie tour
Rock legend Bruce Springsteen has hinted at a return to Australia with the E Street Band next year. Springsteen is currently on tour in Europe with the July 3 show at Milan's famous San Siro stadium set to draw a line under more than two years on the road. 'I'm doing my best as we speak to get down there, hopefully next year some time,' he told Rolling Stone. 'I feel bad. I apologise to my Australian fans for not getting down [there] on this stretch, but I want them to know that we are planning to get down there as soon as feasible, probably in the next year sometime.' The Springsteen and E Street Band 2023-25 tour, rebranded as the Land of Hope and Dreams tour for the current European leg, began in February 2023 in Florida. It was the band's first date since 2017, the longer than usual lay-off caused initially by the Springsteen on Broadway solo performances and then the COVID-19 pandemic. The final leg of that tour was in Australia and New Zealand, bringing to an end a fertile period for local fans after three visits in four years, the same amount as the preceding four decades. 'We had been off for six years,' Springsteen, who will next week release Tracks II: The Lost Albums — a collection of seven full-length, previously unheard albums — said. 'I had to get back in touch with my audience, and it was fun playing with the band. In the future, I think we'll probably play more often and less dates.' Earlier this week, fans got their first look at the biopic Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, and with a release date in October, it looks like it's priming for an Oscar campaign. The Bear's Jeremy Allen White will play Springsteen as a young man on the verge of superstardom as he sets off to make his seminal record Nebraska, which he recorded from his bedroom on a four-track. It's a formative moment in his artistry, as he contends with his changed fortunes, recognition and reconciling his sometimes-painful childhood. The trailer features clips of White as The Boss as well as Jeremy Strong as producer and manager Jon Landau, Australian actor Odessa Young as love interest Faye, Paul Walter Hauser as engineer Mike Batlan, and David Krumholtz as a music executive. There are also black-and-white flashbacks to his younger days, with Stephen Graham and Gaby Hoffman playing Springsteen's parents.

In January, Springsteen confirmed White does his own singing in the film, and endorsed it by declaring, 'He sings well, he sings very well'. With Wenlei Ma

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.'

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.
