Well, will you look at that. Before The Bear roars back to screens with its fourth season, Jeremy Allen White is already making us swoon with his other upcoming venture. No, it’s not another jaw-dropping set of Calvin Klein adverts – it is, in fact, the first trailer for Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, the upcoming biopic in which he’ll be playing music legend Bruce Springsteen during his younger years. With the swept hair, leather jacket and plaid shirt, it has to be said… Jeremy looks a dead ringer.
All of this has happened fairly quickly. On 26 March 2024, Deadline reported that the Emmy, Golden Globe, SAG and Critics’ Choice Award winner was in talks to play Springsteen in a new film about the making of the Oscar winner and 20-time Grammy recipient’s 1982 album Nebraska. The musician was battling with depression when he penned the seminal record – which features the songs “Atlantic City”, “Johnny 99” and “Highway Patrolman”, alongside the title track – pouring his complicated emotions into what is now remembered as his most raw, and to some his best, collection of tracks.
