First trailer for new Bruce Springsteen biopic released
The Bear star plays a young Springsteen in Deliver Me From Nowhere, which chronicles the musician making his 1982 album Nebraska – featuring the singles Atlantic City, My Father's House and State Trooper.
The trailer shows short excerpts from the film, many of them with him playing guitar.
The first scene of the trailer shows a car dealer telling Springsteen's character: 'I do know who you are.' A solemn-looking Springsteen answers: 'Well, that makes one of us.'
Flashbacks show Springsteen as a young boy with his father, played by British actor Stephen Graham.
The film, from 20th Century Studios, is due to be released in cinemas on October 24.
The cast also features Succession actor Jeremy Strong as Springsteen's long-time mentor and manager, Jon Landau, Cruella star Paul Walter Hauser as guitar tech Mike Batlan, and Mothering Sunday actress Odessa Young as love interest Faye.
Nebraska pre-dated 1984's Born In The USA, the title of one of 75-year-old Springsteen's most known songs, and came after his 1975 breakthrough record Born To Run.
Director Scott Cooper, who wrote the script based on the book Deliver Me from Nowhere by Warren Zanes, said: 'Making Springsteen was deeply moving as it allowed me to step inside the soul of an artist I've long admired – and to witness, up close, the vulnerability and strength behind his music.
'The experience felt like a journey through memory, myth, and truth. And more than anything, it was a privilege to translate that raw emotional honesty to the screen, and in doing so, it changed me. I cannot thank Bruce and Jon Landau enough for allowing me to tell their story.'
White has led all three seasons of hit drama The Bear, winning two Emmys and two Golden Globes for his role as chef Carmen 'Carmy' Berzatto.
He is also known for playing Phillip Ronan 'Lip' Gallagher in the US version of Shameless, and wrestler Kerry Von Erich in The Iron Claw.

Golden Retriever Digs Hole in Backyard, Owners Unprepared for His Reaction
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A puppy's nonchalant reaction to digging up the entire backyard has left internet viewers in hysterics. The owner, who uses the social-media tag @ from Staffordshire, in the U.K., shared footage of the destroyed garden before panning to the mischievous golden retriever, lying flat on his back asleep. The video has since garnered over 44,500 likes and almost 300,000 views. "My puppy after digging a giant hole and ruining the garden," the poster wrote as the text overlaying the clip of the mess. "All in a days work for Bear," they captioned the post. The video shows grass and dirt dug up and scattered, while Bear rests inside, blissfully unaware of the extent of the upheaval. The owner added that he was only at it from 10 to 10:05 a.m., highlighting his destructive digging capabilities. U.K. shelter Battersea Dogs & Cats Home says that digging is a normal behavior for dogs, but it can quickly become a nuisance in the garden. They recommend ensuring your pup gets plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to curb the habit. Providing toys, setting aside a specific digging area, and rewarding good behavior can also help redirect their energy. Golden retrievers, in particular, are known for their playful and inquisitive nature, which can make them prone to digging. Wag! experts say that retrievers may dig out of boredom, to seek comfort, or even as a way of exploring scents and sounds underground. For some, the behavior is simply an instinctive outlet for their high energy. Stock image: A golden retriever puppy digs in the dirt. Stock image: A golden retriever puppy digs in the dirt.

"I think that hole dug itself and the puppy is innocent," posted one user. "Why are they like this hahaha?" asked Marie. "I have one who has been quietly digging a grave. It's in a shady corner behind stuff and I hadn't noticed until the debris was flicked far enough to be seen. Enormous," commented Daf. "How respectful of him to not bring any mud in house though," added another user. "Surprisingly clean afterward … Good boy," added Nic. "He feels so guilty he fell into a coma," wrote one viewer. "That was a hard days work!!" posted another user. Newsweek reached out to @ for comment via TikTok. We could not verify the details of the case.

The Hilarious Reason Dakota Johnson Dropped Her Mic and Walked Off Stage
The Hilarious Reason Dakota Johnson Dropped Her Mic and Walked Off Stage originally appeared on Parade. The internet is buzzing over a spontaneous moment that captures 's unscripted charm. At a recent Los Angeles screening Q&A for her new film Splitsville, the actress delivered a playful mic-drop for the ages after a bombshell revelation from her co-star, Nicholas Braun. The cheeky exchange, captured in a now-trending TikTok video, shows Johnson's disbelief as Braun recounts how he learned a crucial magic trick for a scene.. The On-Screen Magic Trick That Wasn't During the Q&A, Braun, known for his role in HBO's Succession, innocently explained the card trick that impressed Johnson on set. "He taught me how to hide a card in my hand," Braun said, referring to co-star Kyle Marvin. Johnson, sporting a black leather maxi skirt and an oversized blazer, was visibly stunned, and sought immediate clarification. 'Nick. I thought — Wait, Kyle taught you this?' she asked, with a look of shock. Braun's reply—"Yes, he taught me the morning of shooting"—sent Johnson into a spiral of playful indignation. 'I hate this f—--g movie,' seemed to jokingly exclaim as she rose from her chair. The room erupted in laughter as she continued, 'I thought you did that, that you learned it.' Braun, unfazed, insisted he learned it "that morning." 'What?! I thought you had prepared that,' Johnson pressed. 'Not at all. No, we came up with it the night before,' Braun finally admitted. In mock disbelief, Johnson tried one last time: "No you had been doing it for weeks." When Braun firmly replied, "No I had not," Johnson, in true A-list style, slammed the microphone to the ground and walked off the stage, disappearing into the applauding audience. Fans React to Dakota Johnson's Mic-Drop Moment The reason for her "rage"? The perfect blend of celebrity dramatics and the relatable human emotion of 'Are you kidding me?' As one Reddit fan summarized, the mic-drop was a mix of "Oh he didn't prep as well as I thought he did" and "Wait he learned that in a single morning, I'm jealous!" The online community was quick to pick up on the comedy. One Reddit user commented, "If she was really mad she wouldn't be speaking into the microphone. It's an act. She's getting really good at it." Another added, "Dakota is a producer on this film, she's not just an actress has a comfort level in slamming the mic down as a joke."

With ‘Lurker,' a Writer of ‘The Bear' Makes Obsession His Main Course
When the 34-year-old writer and producer Alex Russell, best known for his credits on the Emmy-winning TV series 'Beef' and 'The Bear,' was working on what would become his feature directing debut, 'Lurker,' he went to the Los Angeles Zoo to visit the chimpanzees there. 'Among chimps, everyone knows their place and there is a very clear alpha hierarchy,' he said via video call from Los Angeles. 'They have this thing where they establish an alliance by picking sticks and stuff out of each other's hair. But sometimes, which is very funny to me and very 'Lurker,' they'll groom, and the other one doesn't groom them back. It's like, 'OK, you are the one who grooms me. That's our deal.'' Those Darwinian lessons appear both literally — you can see the iPhone footage Russell shot at the zoo that day playing in the background of one scene — and figuratively in the movie, which follows the toxic pas de deux between a rising pop star called Oliver (Archie Madekwe) and Matthew (Théodore Pellerin), a fan who becomes his friend, employee and possible saboteur over the course of 100 fraught, perspective-shifting minutes. A word-of-mouth hit when it premiered this year at the Sundance Film Festival, 'Lurker' (in theaters) plays like a slippery and supremely of-the-moment psychosexual thriller, albeit one that also belongs to a classic cinematic tradition: part Gen-Z 'All About Eve,' part 'Single White Female' for young men raised on Tumblr confessionals and Drake mixtapes. The sand traps and tribulations of fame take a central role, but so do the tricky dynamics of any friendship built on uneven footing. Or as Kenneth Blume, the real-life music producer behind Oliver's earworm-y onscreen balladry, put it in a video interview, 'I couldn't even place Matthew by the end of it. Does he want to [expletive] Oliver? Does he want to kill him? Does he want to be him?' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
