Bruce Springsteen Avoids Biopic Set During Personal Scenes

Bruce Springsteen chose to stay away from the set of his biopic "Deliver Me From Nowhere" during filming of deeply personal scenes to allow actors, especially Jeremy Allen White who portrays him, creative freedom and avoid affecting their performances. The film focuses on the making of his 1982 album "Nebraska" and depicts some of the most painful days of his life. Springsteen praised White for being very tolerant of his presence on set and mentioned that he would leave immediately if his presence became disruptive. The biopic also stars Jeremy Strong as Springsteen's manager Jon Landau, Stephen Graham as his father, and Paul Walter Hauser as recording engineer Mike Batlan. While Springsteen was on tour during much of the filming and made efforts to support the project without overshadowing it, he is open to the idea of performing the "Nebraska" album live in the future to promote the film, though he has no firm plans to do so. The movie is set for release on October 24, 2025.
