Jeremy Allen White, Jeremy Strong wow in new 'Springsteen' movie footage
NEW YORK — The King of New Jersey is taking his Hollywood throne. Emmy winners Jeremy Allen White ('The Bear') and Jeremy Strong ('Succession') star in the highly anticipated Bruce Springsteen biopic 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' (in theaters Oct. 24), which debuted its first trailer last month. On July 29, Disney shared more new footage from the film with a small group of journalists, as the Mouse House touted a slew of upcoming movies from its slate including 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' (Dec. 19) and 'Tron: Ares' (Oct. 10). The 'Springsteen' clips were introduced in a prerecorded message by writer/director Scott Cooper, who shared his desire to focus on a specific chapter of the rock icon's career: the creation of his riskier, more downbeat 1982 album 'Nebraska.' 'It was never about telling the whole story of Bruce Springsteen,' said Cooper, adding he wanted to avoid 'a traditional biopic' in favor of something darker and more introspective. 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' trailer: See Jeremy Allen White transform into Bruce Springsteen Jeremy Allen White nails Bruce Springsteen's singing voice in new movie In one clip, Bruce (White) sits at a Manhattan diner with manager Jon Landau (Strong), looking disheveled and withdrawn as he says that it's hard to come back home after touring. 'The quiet can get a little loud,' Strong's character tells him. 'Coming off the road has never been easy for you. You just need to give it some time. It'll pass.' The two men walk out of the diner and down the block, where a passerby shouts, 'Love you, Bruce!' 'You see that?' Landau says, smiling. 'I'll tell you, hit singles aren't so bad.' The next clip is a flashback to Bruce's childhood, in which his dad (Stephen Graham) points to a large house and says that 'all your problems will disappear' if you have money. The scene cuts to an adult Bruce strumming on his guitar, with White doing an uncanny Springsteen impression as he warbles 'Mansion on a Hill.' Although the actor only bears a passing resemblance to Springsteen, his spot-on vocals and soulful essence may be enough to land him in Oscar contention this coming awards season. Jamie Lee Curtis, James L. Brooks joke about being in a 'throuple' Throughout the roughly hourlong presentation, Disney screened rough footage from the animated 'Zootopia 2' (Nov. 26) and the just-released trailer for 'Predator: Badlands' (Nov. 7) with Elle Fanning. James L. Brooks, the film and TV legend behind 'The Simpsons' and 'Broadcast News,' was also on hand with Jamie Lee Curtis to share a handful of new clips from their feel-good family drama 'Ella McCay' (Dec. 12), about a rising legal star (Emma Mackey) juggling personal and professional responsibilities. The star-studded film features Woody Harrelson, Ayo Edebiri, Kumail Nanjiani, and Jack Lowden, and marks Brooks' first movie in 15 years. 'Here's the amazing truth about Jamie Lee,' Brooks told reporters as he introduced the footage. 'She's everything you could ever want her to be.' Curtis, who plays Ella's aunt Helen, said it was a 'life-changing experience' to work with Brooks. 'At first I was terrified, but now I'm massively in love with him,' Curtis quipped. 'His wife, Mrs. Brooks, and I have come to an understanding. The word 'throuple' has been (thrown around)!' Brooks said Curtis was his only choice to play Helen, which the Oscar-winning actress handwaved away. 'I can take it! I've been a replacement part many times,' Curtis said. 'I was a replacement part in 'Knives Out,' I was a replacement part in 'Freaky Friday,'' whose sequel arrives in theaters Aug. 8. 'You know what? Life hinges on a couple seconds you never see coming.'

"Jeremy Allen White was very tolerant of me": Bruce Springsteen on his biopic set visits
Washington DC [US], June 20 (ANI): Singer Bruce Springsteen opened up about watching the shoot of his biopic 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere', revealing that he sometimes avoided 'deeply personal' scenes when he would visit the set, reported Variety. 'Deliver Me From Nowhere,' in which 'The Bear' star Jeremy Allen White plays Springsteen, chronicles the making of his 1982 album 'Nebraska.' The record would go on to become one of his most popular works and was made at a time when Springsteen was reconciling his newfound success with the ghosts of his past. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, as quoted by Variety, Springsteen was asked what it's been like to watch someone else play a younger version of him. 'I'm sure it's much worse for the actor than for me. Jeremy Allen White was very, very tolerant of me on the days that I would appear on the set,' as quoted by Variety. To avoid the problems on sets, Springsteen told White, 'Look, anytime I'm in the way, just give me the look and I'm on my way home.' He added, 'The days that I got out there, he was wonderfully tolerant with me being there. And it was just fun. It was enjoyable,' as quoted by Variety. However, the singer admitted that there was 'some unusualness' to the process because the biopic 'involves, in some ways, some of the most painful days of my life, reported People. When they filmed certain scenes, Springsteen sometimes opted to stay home. 'If there was a scene coming up that was sometimes really deeply personal, I wanted the actors to feel completely free, and I didn't want to get in the way, and so I would just stay at home,' he said. Springsteen added: 'If Scott Cooper, the director, wanted or needed me there for something, I would try to make it. But I was on tour in Canada for the whole first month or so of the filming, and so I was out really out on the road quite a bit and working at that time,' as quoted by Variety. 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' released its first trailer on Wednesday and is set to hit theaters on October 24. Alongside White, the movie stars Jeremy Strong as Jon Landau, Springsteen's manager; Stephen Graham as Springsteen's dad Douglas; Paul Walter Hauser as recording engineer Mike Batlan; Odessa Young as Springsteen's love interest Faye; Marc Maron as producer Chuck Plotkin; Johnny Cannizzaro as E Street Band guitarist Steve Van Zandt; Harrison Gilbertson as Springsteen's friend Matt Delia; David Krumholtz as Columbia record executive Al Teller and Chris Jaymes as mastering engineer Dennis King, reported Variety.

‘Hopefully next year sometime': Springsteen hints at Aussie tour
Rock legend Bruce Springsteen has hinted at a return to Australia with the E Street Band next year. Springsteen is currently on tour in Europe with the July 3 show at Milan's famous San Siro stadium set to draw a line under more than two years on the road. 'I'm doing my best as we speak to get down there, hopefully next year some time,' he told Rolling Stone. 'I feel bad. I apologise to my Australian fans for not getting down [there] on this stretch, but I want them to know that we are planning to get down there as soon as feasible, probably in the next year sometime.' The Springsteen and E Street Band 2023-25 tour, rebranded as the Land of Hope and Dreams tour for the current European leg, began in February 2023 in Florida. It was the band's first date since 2017, the longer than usual lay-off caused initially by the Springsteen on Broadway solo performances and then the COVID-19 pandemic. The final leg of that tour was in Australia and New Zealand, bringing to an end a fertile period for local fans after three visits in four years, the same amount as the preceding four decades. 'We had been off for six years,' Springsteen, who will next week release Tracks II: The Lost Albums — a collection of seven full-length, previously unheard albums — said. 'I had to get back in touch with my audience, and it was fun playing with the band. In the future, I think we'll probably play more often and less dates.' Earlier this week, fans got their first look at the biopic Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, and with a release date in October, it looks like it's priming for an Oscar campaign. The Bear's Jeremy Allen White will play Springsteen as a young man on the verge of superstardom as he sets off to make his seminal record Nebraska, which he recorded from his bedroom on a four-track. It's a formative moment in his artistry, as he contends with his changed fortunes, recognition and reconciling his sometimes-painful childhood. The trailer features clips of White as The Boss as well as Jeremy Strong as producer and manager Jon Landau, Australian actor Odessa Young as love interest Faye, Paul Walter Hauser as engineer Mike Batlan, and David Krumholtz as a music executive. There are also black-and-white flashbacks to his younger days, with Stephen Graham and Gaby Hoffman playing Springsteen's parents.

In January, Springsteen confirmed White does his own singing in the film, and endorsed it by declaring, 'He sings well, he sings very well'. With Wenlei Ma
