The all-new feature film, 20th Century Studios’ Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, chronicles the making of Bruce Springsteen’s 1982 Nebraska album, a raw, haunted acoustic record that marked a pivotal time in his life and is considered one of his most enduring works.
Director Scott Cooper, who wrote the script for the screen 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.”
