I was a little disappointed that Scott Cooper’s Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere skipped TIFF. Jeremy Allen White’s performance as the iconic New Jersey rocker Bruce Springsteen is one of the last few major dramatic portrayals that’s left to see this awards season. Fortunately, the film still arrives in theaters next month so we won’t have to wait much longer. And today 20th Century Studios has dropped a new trailer.
This is White’s first major film role since The Iron Claw in 2023. He’s joined in the film by Oscar nominee and Emmy winner Jeremy Strong as manager Jon Landau, Paul Walter Hauer as guitar tech Mike Batlan, plus Odessa Young, Stephen Graham, Gaby Hoffman, David Krumholtz, Marc Maron, and Johnny Cannizzaro.
The film is directed by Scott Cooper, who led Jeff Bridges to the Best Actor Academy Award for Crazy Heart. Can he do the same with White?
SYNOPSIS: “Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere” chronicles the making of Bruce Springsteen’s 1982 “Nebraska” album. Recorded on a 4-track recorder in Springsteen’s New Jersey bedroom, the album marked a pivotal time in his life and is considered one of his most enduring works—a raw, haunted acoustic record populated by lost souls searching for a reason to believe.
Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere hits theaters on October 24th.
