Jeremy Allen White stars as Bruce Springsteen in the first trailer for Deliver Me From Nowhere, exploring the making of the 1982 album Nebraska.
The first trailer for Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere has arrived, offering fans a powerful first look at Jeremy Allen White in the role of music legend Bruce Springsteen.
Directed by Scott Cooper, the film chronicles the deeply personal story behind Springsteen’s 1982 solo album Nebraska, a stark and haunting record created during a period of introspection and emotional turmoil for the artist.
In the trailer, viewers see White embodying “The Boss” as he records tracks on a simple four-track cassette recorder in his bedroom, walks the streets of Asbury Park, New Jersey, and channels raw emotion into his music.
Scenes of Springsteen’s quiet creative moments are interwoven with flashes of his childhood, hinting at the internal struggles that shaped both the man and the album.
Jeremy Strong co-stars as Springsteen’s longtime manager Jon Landau, who serves as a guiding voice throughout the trailer. In a passionate voiceover to a record executive, Landau explains that Nebraska isn’t about commercial success or charts — it’s about healing.
“Bruce is a repairman,” he says. “And what he’s doing with this album is he’s repairing that hole in his floor. He’s repairing that hole in himself. And once he’s done that, he’s gonna repair the entire world.”
The trailer builds toward a climactic moment, showing White as Springsteen performing “Born to Run” on stage, juxtaposing the album’s introspective nature with Springsteen’s larger-than-life musical presence.
The trailer is soundtracked by both Nebraska and Born to Run, capturing the duality of Springsteen’s quiet vulnerability and his explosive rock energy.
White reportedly performs all his own vocals in the film, adding authenticity to his portrayal of Springsteen.
With an emotionally rich narrative, compelling performances, and an intimate look at one of Springsteen’s most haunting works, Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere promises to be a deeply human story about art, trauma, and redemption.
The film is set to hit theaters on October 24, 2025.
