Somebody is definitely taking care of our internet boyfriends. First, Timothée Chalamet was out on the streets of New York City masquerading as Bob Dylan (and, later, as himself his own look-a-like contest). Now, Jeremy Allen White has landed himself the lead role in a Bruce Springsteen biopic. Next, someone is going to announce Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott will take on Oasis... that's quite good actually.
If talk of Jeremy Allen White has got your attention, then we've got a treat for you. The project, titled Deliver Me From Nowhere, is en route, and the first trailer (yes, featuring Allen White singing) has arrived to prove it. Below, all the important details about his latest role.
When will Deliver Me From Nowhere be released?
The film has officially been added to the New York Film Festival lineup, where it will screen on September 28, 2025. According to Deadline, there will also be an official world premiere hosted at an earlier date.
Filming recently wrapped in Bruce Springsteen's native neighbourhoods of New Jersey and New York. We'll keep you updated as we know more.
Is there a trailer?
We've finally been treated to a new trailer for the film, which features White singing some of Springsteen's most iconic tracks. See (and listen) for yourself here:
What is Deliver Me From Nowhere about?
Deliver Me From Nowhere has been billed as a narrative feature that follows Springsteen during the creation of his 1982 album Nebraska – which Springsteen considers his best work to date.
The film will take the lead from Warren Zanes’ 2023 book of the same name, which weaves together conversations with the Boss himself, and musical insiders like Rosanne Cash to Steven Van Zandt around the album's significance. We can only guess the film will invite us into process of creating Nebraska, and the turbulent environment Springsteen's sixth studio album was conceived in. It's likely that the movie will also touch on "the beginnings of a mental breakdown that Springsteen would only talk about openly decades after the album’s release," per the book's blurb.
Who else is involved?
Scott Cooper, the director behind Netflix's Edgar Allan Poe film The Pale Blue Eye, is on board to write and direct the project. Joining Allen White on camera is Stephen Graham as Springsteen’s dad, Paul Walter Hauser as guitar tech Mike Batlan, and Australian actress Odessa Young, who is rumoured to play Springsteen's love interest. And potentially adding to this already-stacked cast, back in May, Variety reported that Jeremy Strong is also in talks to play Jon Landau, Springsteen’s longtime
