Jeremy Allen White in talks to portray Bruce Springsteen in A24's biopic
Emmy-winning actor Jeremy Allen White is reportedly in negotiations to take on the iconic role of Bruce Springsteen in an upcoming biographical film produced by A24.
The project, titled "Deliver Me From Nowhere", aims to chronicle the creation of Springsteen's seminal 1982 album, "Nebraska", based on Warren Zanes' acclaimed 2023 book of the same name.
