The actor Jeremy Allen White, known for his role in the series 'The Bear', has been selected to portray Bruce Springsteen in 'Bruce Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere', an antibiopic that portrays the life of the legendary musician during a crucial and difficult period, during the recording of his album 'Nebraska'. White has demonstrated that he possesses the combination of strength and vulnerability needed to embody The Boss at a moment when he felt lost and disconnected from his own life, just before achieving worldwide fame. The film, directed by Scott Copper, hits screens this weekend and seeks to offer a more intimate vision of the artist, beyond his iconic public figure.
In a recent interview, White shared that Springsteen's sincerity was key to understanding and developing his character. The actor feels connected to the theme of loneliness and the search for belonging that runs through the narrative, especially in a context where Springsteen grapples with his identity as his career progresses. The film addresses depression and the importance of seeking help, aspects that were not conventional in the 1980s in New Jersey. White expressed his desire that Springsteen's story would inspire those who face similar struggles, fostering a sense of courage and self-knowledge amid the confusion that fame can generate.
