Jeremy Allen White says portraying bruce springsteen in the upcoming film Deliver Me From Nowhere presented the greatest professional challenge of his career, requiring him to balance the expectations of devoted fans, music aficionados, and the iconic artist himself. The film is set to be released globally in two weeks.
White detailed the pressure of the role in a recent extended interview with CBS Sunday Mornings, acknowledging the unique and “pure” connection Springsteen has cultivated with his audience over decades. He initially wrestled with the impossibility of universally satisfying everyone, ultimately realizing that attempting to do so was futile. Rather, White channeled his anxiety and respect into a “very strong work ethic,” resulting in a performance he describes as a source of pride.
The actor explained he didn’t experience a single defining moment of confidence but found a path forward by focusing on the work itself. Deliver Me From Nowhere promises a deep dive into the life and legacy of “The Boss,” and WhiteS portrayal will be closely scrutinized by those familiar with Springsteen’s extensive body of work and public persona.
