Next month brings the release of Deliver Me From Nowhere, the Bruce Springsteen biopic about the making of his seminal album Nebraska. A new trailer for the film premiered during Sunday’s Emmy Awards, which can be seen below.
Written and directed by Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart) and adapted from Warren Zanes’ 2023 biography, Deliver Me from Nowhere: The Making of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska, the film chronicles the development of the 1982 album. Coming off the blockbuster success of The River, Springsteen retreated to his bedroom with a four-track recorder, crafting a raw, intimate set of songs. Despite label pressure to release full-band versions, he ultimately stuck with the haunting home recordings — the very ones that became Nebraska.
Jeremy Allen White stars as Springsteen, with Jeremy Strong playing the musician’s manager, Jon Landau. The cast also includes Paul Walter Hauser, Odessa Young, Marc Maron, Gabby Hoffman, Stephen Graham, and Johnny Cannizzaro. Deliver Me From Nowhere will be released in theaters on October 24th.
