Actor Jeremy Allen White is diving deep into his preparation for the upcoming Bruce Springsteen biopic, 'Deliver Me From Nowhere.' The 20th Century and Disney production, which began filming this spring, will see White embodying the legendary rock star, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. To perfect his portrayal, White has enlisted a team of experts. 'I've got a really talented group of people helping me train vocally, musically, to get ready for this thing,' White told GQ.

Recent biopics have seen actors like Austin Butler as Elvis and Rami Malek as Freddie Mercury. Now, White joins this elite club, with a strong support from Springsteen himself. 'I've had some access to him and he's just the greatest guy,' White shared. Other upcoming biopics include Timothee Chalamet as Bob Dylan and Jafaar Jackson as Michael Jackson.

'Deliver Me From Nowhere' focuses on the creation of Springsteen's 1982 album Nebraska, known for its blue-collar themes and somber tones. Directed by Scott Cooper, the film aims to capture the resilience and hope within the album's dark narrative. White noted that his research involves extensive footage of Springsteen, stating, 'It's been really fun preparing.'

Cooper elaborated on Springsteen's enduring legacy, emphasizing themes of despair and resilience. 'That's the Bruce I've come to know and love and will honour with this film,' he said. The movie's release date has yet to be announced, as per The Hollywood Reporter. (ANI)
