See Jeremy Allen White Perform Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Born To Run’ in First Deliver Me From Nowhere Trailer

Jeremy Allen White is stepping into Bruce Springsteen’s shoes for his next big screen role.

On Wednesday, June 18, 20th Century Studios released the trailer for Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, a biopic that stars White, 34, as Springsteen while he records his sixth album Nebraska.

The trailer meets Springsteen recording music in a home with his guitar tech (Paul Walter Hauser) as his manager Jon Landau (Jeremy Strong) persuades Columbia Records executives to let him release the stripped-back album. The movie appears to explore Springsteen’s relationship with his childhood; the trailer also shows footage of The Bear star during an energetic performance of Springsteen’s 1975 classic “Born To Run.

The movie “chronicles the making of Bruce Springsteen’s 1982 ‘Nebraska’ album when he was a young musician on the cusp of global superstardom, struggling to reconcile the pressures of success with the ghosts of his past,” reads an official synopsis.

“Recorded on a 4-track recorder in Springsteen’s New Jersey bedroom, the album marked a pivotal time in his life and is considered one of his most enduring works—a raw, haunted acoustic record populated by lost souls searching for a reason to believe,” the synopsis adds.

White and Strong appeared together at CinemaCon in April to tease the movie, with White stating that making the movie “was incredible, challenging and a dream come true.” “I feel really lucky. We all had Bruce’s blessing,” White told an audience at the time. “The film tells the story of a very pivotal moment, Bruce struggling to reconcile the pressures of success versus his past.”

The movie is written and directed by Scott Cooper and based on author Warren Zanes’ book of the same name. Beyond White, Strong and Hauser, the movie’s cast also features Stephen Graham, Odessa Young, Gaby Hoffman, Marc Maron and David Krumholtz. 

Springsteen himself visited the set of the biopic multiple times in fall 2024 and early 2025; he and White were snapped sharing a hug on set, and the legendary rock musician also posed on set with Matthew Anthony Pellicano, who plays Springsteen as a child in the upcoming movie.
