Jeremy Allen White Says Bruce Springsteen ‘Really Supportive’ of ‘Deliver Me From Nowhere’ Biopic: ‘The Greatest Guy’


Jeremy Allen White says Bruce Springsteen has been 'really supportive' of 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' Biopic, calls Boss 'the greatest guy.'

Luckily for The Bear star Jeremy Allen White, Bruce Springsteen has been playing three hour-plus shows for more than 50 years, so the tape library is voluminous. “I’m also really lucky [that] Bruce is really supportive of the film, and so I’ve had some access to him and he’s just the greatest guy.” Plus, the Calvin Klein model who has set hearts aflutter with his ab-tastic Calvin Klein ads, said that even though we’ve not really heard his take on the New Jersey icon’s legendarily gruff vocal timbre, like Springsteen, he is a “jeans and T-shirt kind of guy. Deliver Me From Nowhere will tell the story behind the making of Nebraska, a stark collection of character studies that followed up Springsteen’s sprawling 1980 double album, The River, which contained some of The Boss’ most beloved live staples, including the singles “Hungry Heart,” “Fade Away,” “Sherry Darling,” the title track and “Cadillac Ranch.” The movie will be directed by Scott Cooper ( Black Mass, Antlers), with a release date and supporting cast not yet announced.
