Overview

  • White debuted his transformation as Bruce Springsteen in the June 18 trailer and performed the songs himself to capture the 1982 Nebraska sessions’ raw intimacy
  • The biopic trailer drove an unprecedented surge of attention, with White receiving more texts than after his Golden Globe–winning role in The Bear
  • White told Jimmy Fallon that embodying a living legend brought immense pressure but also a deep sense of fulfillment
  • Springsteen visited the set and commended White’s tolerance, choosing to stay away during scenes that revisited particularly painful moments from his life
  • Adapted from Warren Zanes’s 2023 book, Deliver Me From Nowhere chronicles the making of Nebraska and is set to open in theaters on October 24, 2025
