Why Bruce Springsteen Finally Let a Film Crew Follow Him Around for ‘Road Diary’ and How His Tour’s Next Leg Will ‘Make Sense’ of America’s Dark Turn


On Variety's Awards Circuit Podcast, Bruce Springsteen and 'Road Diary' director Thom Zimny explain hour the Boss finally allowed filming of his tour.

Directed by longtime collaborator Thom Zimny, “Road Diary” — currently streaming on Hulu and Disney+ — contains loads of that archival film, including 1975 footage from London’s Hammersmith Apollo. “And for years, I’ve saved those clips and felt like ‘Road Diary,’ I had this mission to not only bring the sonic qualities of those players and guys in E Street in the forefront, but literally to see their expressions again, their smiles, hear the musicality of their voices. Up next in Springsteenland, Jeremy Allen White will be seen in the biopic “Deliver Me From Nowhere,” playing the Boss in a feature about the making of his 1982 album “Nebraska.” The film is adapted by Warren Zanes’ book of the same name and comes from director/writer Scott Cooper.
