Bruce Springsteen Says Jeremy Allen White Was ‘Wonderfully Tolerant’ of Biopic Set Visits, Reveals He Avoided Watching ‘Deeply Personal’ Scenes: It ‘Involves Some of the Most Painful Days of My Life’
Bruce Springsteen avoided watching "deeply personal" scenes when visiting the set of his Jeremy Allen White-starring biopic 'Deliver Me From Nowhere.'
In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Springsteen was asked what it’s been like to watch someone else play a younger version of him. However, the rocker admitted that there was “some unusualness” to the process because the biopic “involves, in some ways, some of the most painful days of my life.” Alongside White, the movie stars Jeremy Strong as Jon Landau, Springsteen’s manager; Stephen Graham as Springsteen’s dad Douglas; Paul Walter Hauser as recording engineer Mike Batlan; Odessa Young as Springsteen’s love interest Faye; Marc Maron as producer Chuck Plotkin; Johnny Cannizzaro as E Street Band guitarist Steve Van Zandt; Harrison Gilbertson as Springsteen’s friend Matt Delia; David Krumholtz as Columbia record executive Al Teller and Chris Jaymes as mastering engineer Dennis King.
