Jeremy Allen White is Bruce Springsteen in 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' trailer
The trailer for "Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere" was released on Wednesday, giving fans a first look at footage of Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen.
The biographical film follows Springsteen's efforts to make his 1982 solo album "Nebraska." The trailer features footage of White as the Boss, recording songs on a four-track recorder in his bedroom, walking around Asbury Park in New Jersey, and more, ending with him triumphantly singing "Born to Run" onstage.
The trailer also includes clips of Jeremy Strong as Springsteen's manager, Jon Landau. In a voiceover, Landau explains to a record executive why Springsteen decided to make "Nebraska."
"Here's what I want you to understand. This is not about either one of us. It's not about the charts," he says. "This is about Bruce Springsteen. And these are the songs he wants to work on right now."
He then tells a story about how Springsteen grew up with a hole in the floor of his bedroom, cut with flashbacks to Springsteen as a child.
"The floor, it's supposed to be solid. You're supposed to be able to stand on it. Bruce, he didn't have that," Landau says. "Bruce is a repairman, 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 clip is soundtracked to the Springsteen songs "Nebraska" and "Born to Run." White does his own singing in the film.
"Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere," directed by Scott Cooper, hits theaters Oct. 24.
20th Century Studios is owned by Disney, the parent company of ABC News and "Good Morning America."
