The musical biopics continue to arrive, and many of them are choosing to go the segment-of-life route (see: ‘Bob Marley: One Love’) as opposed to the cradle-to-grave approach.

With the cameras now rolling, we have our first look at ‘Deliver Me from Nowhere,’ which will detail the recording of one particular album in iconic rocker Bruce Springsteen’s back catalogue.

Starring as Springsteen is Jeremy Allen White, who knows a little something about playing people who are dedicated to the act of creation after playing the driven Carmy in ‘The Bear,’ even if here, he’s swapping cooking for music.

Scott Cooper, who has made the likes of ‘Crazy Heart,’ ‘Hostiles’ and ‘Black Mass,’ is directing the film from his own script.

Here’s what Cooper had to say about working on the new movie:

“Beginning production on this film is an incredibly humbling and thrilling journey. Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Nebraska’ has profoundly shaped my artistic vision. The album’s raw, unvarnished portrayal of life’s trials and resilience resonates deeply with me. Our film aims to capture that same spirit, bringing Warren Zanes’ compelling narrative of Bruce’s life to the screen with authenticity and hope, honoring Bruce’s legacy in a transformative cinematic experience.”

What’s the story of ‘Deliver Me from Nowhere’?

The new movie will follow Springsteen as he struggles to make 1982 album “Nebraska.” The development of the record, which followed Springsteen’s 1981 “The River Tour,” marked a pivotal time in his life, one that he would only openly talk about decades after its release.

It’s regarded as a landmark in his musical odyssey and a source of inspiration for a generation of artists and musicians. Recorded on a 4-track recorder in Springsteen’s New Jersey bedroom and without The E Street Band, “Nebraska” is considered one of Springsteen’s most enduring works — a raw, haunted acoustic record populated by lost souls searching for a reason to believe.

When will ‘Deliver Me from Nowhere’ be in theaters?

While it doesn’t have a specific date on the books, 20th Century Studios is looking to have this one on screens in 2025. If it turns out well, we’d guess it’ll be looking to debut during awards season.
