Jeremy Allen White has a hobby many people can relate to: endlessly browsing real estate listings with no plans to buy anything.

On a bonus episode of the 'Smartless' podcast, the actor shared how scrolling through homes helps him fully relax when he's not working. He admitted he loves watching real estate reality shows and spends a lot of time on Realtor and Zillow apps, imagining what life might be like in different places rather than actually shopping for a home. He even joked that he sends listings to friends, who tell him he should just buy one already.

White also said he's especially excited about the return of 'Owning Manhattan' for a second season and praised the show's star, Ryan Serhant, saying he finds him impressive.

Jeremy Allen White's Interest in Real Estate

The 'Bear' star explained that whenever he travels for work, goes on a road trip, or passes through a charming small town, he automatically checks what houses are available nearby. He often finds himself wondering what it would be like to own a place there and visit regularly.

When asked about the strangest place he seriously considered living, White pointed to Bisbee, Arizona. During a cross-country road trip about a decade ago, he stopped there and was immediately drawn to the town’s desert setting, colourful buildings, and hillside views.

He described it as tiny, remote, and full of character. After staying overnight at a bed-and-breakfast and chatting with locals, he noticed that many people had simply passed through, opened a business, and ended up staying for good. White eventually moved on, but he admitted he spent about six months daydreaming about buying a small house there.

Jeremy Allen White's Current Project

Jeremy Allen White's recent remarks regarding romantic comedies are particularly noteworthy because his career has been founded through dramatic, emotionally grounded performances rather than glossy genre material. 'The Bear' star has now discussed whether or not he would ever work in romantic comedies, saying that although he is open to the notion, he is waiting for a part that feels significant and long-lasting rather than just "a flash in the pan."

From Dramatic Depth to Candid Possibilities: White's Acting Journey

Through profound, emotionally charged performances that deviate from traditional genre work, Jeremy Allen White has gradually established a solid reputation in Hollywood. His depiction of Carmy in 'The Bear,' which was praised for its nuanced and gritty representation of vulnerability and ferocity, initially brought him international acclaim. In addition to television, he has also taken on interesting film parts.

His most recent performance was in 'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere,' an ambitious biographical drama in which he plays Bruce Springsteen, showcasing his versatility and dedication to character development. Rather than lighthearted genres that haven't historically defined his body of work, White has tended to focus on difficult people and stories that need emotional honesty throughout his career.

Yet despite this focus, he remains open to exploring new creative terrain, including the possibility of starring in a romantic comedy if the right project comes along.

Rom-Coms on His Radar—But Only With Depth

In a recent interview with actress Kate Hudson for Variety's Actors on Actors series, Jeremy Allen White talked about the possibility of someday playing the lead in a romantic comedy, a genre that is usually connected to love, warmth, and laughter. Instead of dismissing the idea, White showed a sincere interest in the genre by stating, "I'd love to" try a rom-com because such films "seem so fun."

He did clarify, though, that he hasn't yet accepted such roles because he is searching for something significant and long-lasting. White stated that he prefers a role that will last, citing timeless romantic comedies like When 'Harry Met Sally' as examples of the complexity and charm he values, rather than pursuing fast-paced, trend-driven productions. "I worry about finding the right character," he said, noting that a romantic comedy would need more emotional heft and authenticity than merely being a fleeting success. 

Balancing Range, Recognition, and Future Choices

Jeremy Allen White tackles every aspect of his job with intention and a great sense of craft, which is shown in his deliberate approach to romantic comedies. Although his work has so far been character-driven and dramatic, his willingness to experiment with other genres indicates that he is not afraid to develop as an actor. White's statement that he avoids parts that seem like "a flash in the pan" indicates that he wants to leave a legacy that is characterized by depth and quality rather than fleeting fads.

With a growing number of varied film and television accomplishments, a Golden Globe nomination, and critically lauded roles like his portrayal of Springsteen, White is in a position to carefully select his projects, whether they are romantic comedies, emotional tragedies, or something else entirely. Fans and industry watchers alike will likely keep an eye on this versatile actor, eager to see how his career unfolds as he balances artistic curiosity with thoughtful role selection.

The highly anticipated film is an intimate project that reshaped The Boss's career. With White portraying Springsteen at a pivotal artistic crossroads, the movie promises a raw, emotionally charged look at the pressures of genius, the chase for authenticity, and the lonely road of creativity.

During an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE at the Gotham Awards in New York City, the two-time Emmy winner shared that the harmonica-driven track 'Mansion on the Hill' was the song he repeatedly turned to. White explained that the song helped him connect deeply with the emotional core of the film, and whenever he felt unsure or creatively off-balance, revisiting the track brought him back into the right headspace.

What is Jeremy Allen White's 'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' About?

The upcoming biopic follows a young Bruce Springsteen during the creation and release of his raw 1982 album 'Nebraska', with Jeremy Allen White portraying the music icon in his earlier years. 'Mansion on the Hill,' featured on that same album, also appears in the film—performed by White himself—earning him early praise for capturing the spirit and vulnerability of Springsteen's sound.

Beyond the music, Jeremy Allen White shared that he had several rituals to help embody the 20-time Grammy winner. He regularly studied a specific seven-minute interview that he watched almost every morning, using it as a reference point for Springsteen's mindset and energy. He also focused intensely on the musician's physical nuances, including how he held his guitar, lowered his head while recording, and lifted his harmonica. These details became essential tools for White whenever he needed to reconnect with the character.

'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' is now playing in theatres, offering fans a deeper look into one of Springsteen’s most defining creative periods—and showcasing White’s devoted transformation into The Boss.

Bruce Springsteen’s new biopic, 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere,' failed to strike a high note at the box office during its opening weekend. The Jeremy Allen White–led film earned just $9.1 million domestically following its 24th October premiere, landing in fourth place. Internationally, it brought in an additional $7 million, giving the movie a modest global total of $16.1 million—well below early projections.

Based on Warren Zanes' acclaimed book, 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' explores a deeply personal chapter in Springsteen's life. The story follows the musician as he battles depression, isolation, and generational trauma while creating his 1982 masterpiece 'Nebraska.'

Scott Cooper on 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere'

Writer-director Scott Cooper focused his 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' adaptation on the raw emotional core of Zanes' book, seeking to portray a quiet, introspective version of Springsteen rather than the rock icon fans know from the stage. Cooper explained in past interviews that his goal was to capture the tension between Springsteen's mythic public image and his private struggles, finding cinematic beauty in the artist’s silence, hesitation, and vulnerability.

With a production budget of $55 million and a release across more than 3,400 theatres, 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' still has room to grow. Audiences have responded favourably, giving it a B+ CinemaScore, while critics remain divided with a 60% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Anime Thriller 'Chainsaw Man–The Movie: Reze Arc' Slashes Its Way to No. 1

Topping the weekend box office was 'Chainsaw Man–The Movie: Reze Arc', distributed by Sony's anime label Crunchyroll. The film earned an impressive $17.3 million domestically across both subtitled and dubbed versions. Internationally, it has already raked in over $108 million, setting the stage for another major anime box office success following 'Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle.'

The movie continues the story of the hit manga and anime series, which has built a massive global following.

'The Black Phone 2' Keeps Horror Strong at the Box Office

In second place, 'The Black Phone 2' continued horror’s box office dominance. The Scott Derrickson-directed sequel starring Ethan Hawke earned $13 million in its second weekend—a 52% drop from its debut—but still holds strong with $48 million domestic and $80.4 million worldwide. The film's success reinforces 2025's trend of horror outperforming expectations across multiple releases.

'Regretting You' Surprises with Strong Debut

Coming in third, 'Regretting You'—the latest adaptation of a Colleen Hoover bestseller—overperformed with $12.8 million domestically and another $10 million overseas, totalling $22.85 million worldwide.

The romantic drama stars Allison Williams as Morgan, a mother navigating grief and betrayal alongside her teenage daughter, Clara, played by McKenna Grace. The film also features Mason Thames, Dave Franco, Scott Eastwood, and Willa Fitzgerald.

As the second of four planned Hoover adaptations (following 'It Ends With Us' and ahead of 'Verity' and 'Reminders of Him'), 'Regretting You' demonstrates that Hoover’s stories continue to resonate with moviegoers and drive consistent box office results.

Rock legend Bruce Springsteen is already looking ahead to a possible sequel to 'Deliver Me From Nowhere,' the acclaimed new biopic inspired by one of his most introspective albums, 'Nebraska.'

During the AFI Fest in Los Angeles, director Scott Cooper revealed that Springsteen has expressed a genuine interest in developing additional films that explore different eras of his life and music. Cooper compared the idea to the upcoming slate of four Beatles biopics from director Sam Mendes, noting that Springsteen's decades-long career offers just as much depth and storytelling potential.

More on Bruce Springsteen's Biopic

The film, starring Jeremy Allen White as a young Springsteen, dramatises the emotional journey behind the recording of 'Nebraska'—a stark, haunting 1982 album born from the artist's struggles with depression and the lingering trauma of his childhood. Cooper shared that Springsteen not only supports the project but also feels at ease seeing one of the most vulnerable periods of his life translated to film.

The director added that numerous other chapters in Springsteen's life could make for equally powerful cinema. 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' premiered in theatres on 24th October and has already received strong reviews from critics.

Jeremy Allen White Shares on Portraying Bruce Springsteen

Star Jeremy Allen White also reflected on his experience portraying 'The Boss.' He recalled how performing 'Nebraska' tracks on set felt especially meaningful, knowing Bruce Springsteen was present. After one of the key recording scenes, Springsteen personally greeted White, expressing pride in his performance and offering encouragement—a moment the actor described as transformative for his confidence and connection to the role.

At the same AFI Fest event, Bruce Springsteen took a moment to speak about the current state of the United States, voicing concern over recent political unrest and social division. Having spent decades touring globally, Springsteen reflected on how his music has served as a form of cultural diplomacy, reminding audiences of the values that continue to define America's spirit.

Jeremy Allen White's transformation into Bruce Springsteen in 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' is so authentic that even the legendary musician himself reportedly struggled to tell their voices apart.

The highly anticipated biopic, which opened AFI Fest in Hollywood, stunned audiences and critics alike. During the premiere, co-star Marc Maron revealed that Springsteen was genuinely impressed—and momentarily confused—by White's vocals, noting that the musician couldn't always distinguish between his own singing and White's on several recordings.

Directed and written by Scott Cooper, the film chronicles Springsteen's journey in the early 1980s as he records his critically acclaimed album 'Nebraska' while wrestling with fame, isolation, and memories from his past.

Scott Cooper Praises Jeremy Allen White

Scott Cooper praised White's dedication to embodying the rock icon, explaining that while he always believed the 'Bear' actor had the emotional range, physical presence, and working-class energy to play Springsteen, he wasn't certain about the singing until he heard it firsthand. 

Once Jeremy Allen White began recording Springsteen's lyrics at the historic RCA Studio in Nashville, Cooper said the performance left the entire crew stunned by its realism.

To prepare for the role, White reportedly underwent extensive vocal, guitar, harmonica, and movement training to perfect Springsteen's signature sound and stage presence. The result is a performance so immersive that even the Boss himself momentarily questioned which voice belonged to whom.

Bruce Springsteen's Surprise Performance

Following the film's premiere, Springsteen took to the stage at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood for a surprise performance, thanking fans for supporting the project and joking that he's sticking to music after this final foray into the film world.

Before performing his classic song 'Land of Hope and Dreams,' Bruce Springsteen reflected on his decades-long career, describing himself as a musical ambassador who has witnessed both the flaws and enduring ideals of America. He urged unity and hope, dedicating his performance as a symbolic prayer for the country.

'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere' arrives in theatres tomorrow on 24th October, bringing audiences an emotional and musically charged look at one of rock's most defining eras—and a performance from Jeremy Allen White that even Bruce Springsteen himself might mistake for the real thing.

Jeremy Allen White pushed himself to the limit while channelling Bruce Springsteen for his latest role—so much so that he actually lost his voice.

In his new feature for PEOPLE, the 34-year-old actor opened up about the challenges of portraying the music legend in 'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere,' directed by Scott Cooper. The upcoming biopic explores a young Springsteen's creative journey as he recorded and released his 1982 album 'Nebraska.'

Jeremy Allen White on Recording 'Born in the U.S.A.'

White admitted that his preparation time for the demanding role was short, leaving him little opportunity for formal vocal training before stepping into Springsteen's shoes. When the time came to perform the rock icon's 1984 hit 'Born in the U.S.A.' on camera, the actor found himself unprepared for the sheer power required to deliver the song authentically.

Image Courtesy: Getty

According to Jeremy Allen White, his main goal was to capture the emotional honesty behind Springsteen’s lyrics rather than achieve a perfect vocal imitation. He wanted his performance to reflect the truth and grit embedded in Springsteen's music, hoping audiences would connect with the raw emotion even if his voice didn't sound exactly like The Boss's.

However, replicating the intensity of Springsteen's voice proved to be tougher than expected. Unlike Springsteen, who developed his sound over years of performing in small venues and perfecting his technique under imperfect conditions, White had only months to train. Without that endurance, he found himself straining to hit the song's powerful notes. During the recording of 'Born in the U.S.A.,' Jeremy Allen White ended up losing his voice for several days—a sign of just how physically demanding the performance had been.

More on 'Born in the U.S.A.'

While 'Born in the U.S.A.' wasn't part of the 'Nebraska' tracklist, the song's origins trace back to that same creative period. Springsteen wrote and recorded an early demo while working on 'Nebraska' at home with just his acoustic guitar. Although he would later rework it with the E Street Band for his 1984 album, 'Born in the U.S.A.', he first released 'Nebraska'—a haunting, stripped-down collection that earned critical acclaim and solidified his reputation as one of America’s most introspective songwriters.

'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' captures this pivotal chapter in Springsteen's career, illustrating how his minimalist approach on 'Nebraska' laid the groundwork for his later commercial success.

To prepare for the role, Jeremy Allen White also learned to play guitar—despite having no prior experience. He described his first lessons as a humbling experience, struggling to understand chord positions and finger placement. Over seven months, he dedicated himself to daily practice, gradually developing the skills and confidence needed to embody one of rock's greatest performers.

With its blend of raw emotion, musical history, and human vulnerability, 'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' promises to showcase both Bruce Springsteen’s artistry and Jeremy Allen White's remarkable transformation. The film premieres in theatres on 24th October.

For his stirring portrayal in the upcoming Bruce Springsteen biopic 'Deliver Me From Nowhere,' British actor Stephen Graham is receiving a lot of attention. Graham plays Bruce Springsteen's father, Douglas "Dutch" Springsteen, in the film, which follows the making of Springsteen's eerily reflective 1982 album 'Nebraska.' Graham's emotionally nuanced performance has already drawn attention from both audiences and critics, but what's really making headlines is Springsteen's sincere admiration. The film, set to release in theaters on 24th October is already generating Oscar buzz for its cast and direction.

A Deep Dive Into the Making of 'Deliver Me From Nowhere'

Image Courtesy: People

Scott Cooper's film, 'Deliver Me From Nowhere,' examines a lesser-known aspect of Bruce Springsteen: the reflective musician who battles with identity, family, and mental health, rather than the stadium-rocking legend. The film follows the making of 'Nebraska,' a harsh, lo-fi album that Springsteen recorded alone on a cassette player at his house. It is set in the early 1980s. The loneliness and internal conflict that influenced one of his most personal recordings are depicted in the narrative. 

Jeremy Allen White plays Bruce Springsteen, with Odessa Young portraying his love interest, and Jeremy Strong taking on the role of longtime manager Jon Landau. Paul Walter Hauser and the well-known Stephen Graham, who plays Bruce's emotionally distant father, are also featured in the cast. The film is one of 2025's most anticipated releases because of its unvarnished narrative and very sensitive subject matter, which seeks to unveil the man behind the music rather than just the myth.

Stephen Graham's Performance Hits Home

Widespread praise has been bestowed upon Stephen Graham for his powerful and emotional depiction of Douglas Springsteen, a tough, emotionally aloof father whose complex connection with his son had a profound effect. According to Bruce Springsteen himself, Graham's performance was more than just convincing—it was deeply moving. Speaking at a special Q&A in London, Springsteen said Graham "really embodied the physicality and emotional complexity of my father." He added that toward the end of the film, audiences "feel the invulnerability—but also the sweetness—of the man."

In a subsequent private text to Graham, Springsteen claimed that the performance made his father come to life for him. Graham said he was moved to tears by the message, describing it as "the most gorgeous text I've ever had in my life." He went on to say that the recognition meant more to him than any honour. In addition to Springsteen, early viewers of the movie were moved by the actor’s ability to convey the emotional weight of a man who is both menacing and subtly affectionate.

A Tribute That Goes Beyond Performance

The background of Springsteen's music itself gives Graham's contribution a particularly significant meaning. Bruce's complicated familial dynamics and feelings of alienation are reflected in a lot of Nebraska's lyrical content; these themes are ideally captured in the father-son relationship shown in the movie. The film's emotional centre is anchored by Graham's performance, which will give audiences a unique look into the inner turmoil that underlies Springsteen's creative brilliance. 

Image Courtesy: Getty

By portraying Bruce as a fragile son facing his past rather than as a rock god, Graham's genuine acting has helped humanize a legendary character. As the release date approaches, 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' is already being hailed as a potential awards season frontrunner—not just for its direction and storytelling, but especially for the performances that bring Bruce’s deeply personal story to life. With Springsteen's continuous backing and such impactful portrayals, this biopic is sure to be as memorable as the music it was inspired by.

Jeremy Allen White has opened up about how he prepared for his role as Bruce Springsteen in the new biopic 'Deliver Me From Nowhere'—revealing that he learned to play the songs on a guitar personally sent to him by Springsteen himself.

'The Bear' star takes on the role of The Boss in the new film, which explores Springsteen's mental health challenges and the creative process behind his iconic 1982 album 'Nebraska.' During a Spotify-hosted fan Q&A attended by both Springsteen and White, the actor discussed how he approached learning the instrument for the role.

Jeremy Allen White's New Guitar

White explained that Springsteen sent him a rare 1955 Gibson J200—a model nearly identical to the one the rock legend used while recording 'Nebraska.' He described it as an incredible instrument and said it felt like learning to play on one of the finest guitars imaginable.

To prepare for the film, Jeremy Allen White trained intensively with guitarist JD Simone, who coached him remotely from Nashville several times a week. Rather than starting with guitar fundamentals, White focused directly on mastering a handful of Springsteen's songs, a process he described as both unconventional and deeply immersive.

Jeremy Allen White Got Attached to His Guitar

The actor became so attached to the guitar that he used it throughout filming. Despite the prop team's concerns about its safety, Jeremy Allen White took it home nightly to continue practising, ensuring his performance would feel as authentic as possible.

White has also mentioned his intention to keep playing, admitting that the guitar is too beautiful to be left untouched.

Bruce Springsteen himself praised White’s dedication, saying the actor delivered the 'Nebraska' tracks with impressive authenticity and emotional depth.

'Deliver Me From Nowhere' hits cinemas on 24th October, promising a fresh and intimate look at one of Springsteen's most defining creative periods. Director Scott Cooper has teased that the biopic will offer new insights even for long-time fans, while Jeremy Allen White has shared that he intentionally avoided seeking advice from other biopic actors like Timothée Chalamet and Austin Butler to craft his own unique interpretation of The Boss.

The legend behind "Born to Run" is about to reveal more than just melodies. 'Deliver Me from Nowhere,' the upcoming movie about Bruce Springsteen, explores vulnerability by following one of his most reflective and depressing times. Nebraska, one of his most enduring and disturbing works, tackles the emotional weight he carried, including sorrow, pain, self-doubt, and mental health difficulties, rather than concentrating only on celebrity and spectacle.

According to director Scott Cooper, this is the "most painful chapter" of Springsteen's story, the moment when the roar of stadium applause receded and the internal battles began in earnest.

Image Courtesy: Jacobin

The film, which has a set release date of 24th October, and stars Jeremy Allen White, Jeremy Strong, Stephen Graham, Paul Walter Hauser, Odessa Young, and others, intends to provide viewers with a musical experience as well as a profoundly human portrayal.

A Raw Look at Mental Health Behind the Music

The 1982 album 'Nebraska,' a minimalist, acoustic endeavor recorded in Springsteen's New Jersey home, is the focus of the movie. Nebraska, which reflected Bruce's inner state at the time, was a somber, eerie, and intensely intimate song in contrast to his chart-topping anthems. According to director Scott Cooper, this time was characterized by therapy sessions, emotional unwinding, and facing long-buried trauma.

Springsteen has been candid about his battles with emotional shadows inherited from his father, despair, and breakdowns. The film doesn't just highlight his creative process, but delves into how mental illness shaped his life and music. Cooper refers to this candid examination as "his most traumatic chapter," a period in Springsteen's life that influenced the vulnerable tone of Nebraska and transformed him as a person and an artist.

A-List Cast Brings Springsteen's Story to Life

The Bear, played by Jeremy Allen White, plays the difficult part of Bruce Springsteen, undergoing both a physical and emotional metamorphosis. He's joined by a stellar cast, including Odessa Young as Bruce's love interest, Paul Walter Hauser as sound engineer Mike Batlan, Stephen Graham as Bruce's problematic father, and Jeremy Strong as manager Jon Landau. 

Image Courtesy: The Hollywood Reporter

Other well-known actors include Marc Maron, David Krumholtz, and Johnny Cannizzaro in minor parts, and Gaby Hoffmann as his mother Adele. The ensemble combines a wide variety of skills to depict not only Bruce's inner circle but also the connections and pressures that shaped this period of his life. Director Cooper has noted that Bruce was involved in the process but gave the cast and crew creative freedom to tell the story honestly.

A Defining Chapter in an Iconic Career

While Bruce Springsteen is best known for his explosive energy on stage and timeless rock hits, 'Deliver Me from Nowhere' reveals the quieter, more fragile moments that often go unseen. This phase of his life was about facing the silence, getting support, and finding his voice again in solitary rather than about celebrity or stadium tours. Fans are drawn to the movie not only by the music but also by the universal human experiences of depression, anxiety, and having the guts to face these emotions. 

Check out the Trailer: 

The reality it conveys, rather than the commotion it creates, will probably make this biopic a pillar of Springsteen’s legacy as he continues to tour and inspire at the age of 76. It provides a profoundly personal look at a rock legend who, at his lowest point, made the decision to continue creating by being candid about mental illness and emotional difficulty.

Jeremy Allen White is opening up about the challenges of stepping into the shoes of Bruce Springsteen for the upcoming biopic 'Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere,' set to premiere on 24th October.

The Emmy-winning actor admitted that he had little to no musical training before taking on the role, which made the task of singing and playing guitar especially intimidating. He revealed on Marc Maron's WTF podcast that preparing to perform as Springsteen in front of the legendary musician himself added to the pressure.

Jeremy Allen White And Tough Vocals

To tackle the demanding vocals, Jeremy Allen White worked with renowned vocal coach Eric Vetro, who has previously trained stars like Austin Butler for Elvis and Timothée Chalamet for the Bob Dylan film. White credited Vetro with helping him discover his own voice while still honouring Springsteen’s iconic sound. Even so, the actor acknowledged that the singing felt like a gamble, particularly when trying to master the phrasing on Springsteen’s haunting 1982 album 'Nebraska,' which serves as the centrepiece of the film.

Jeremy Allen White also shared that at times he became too focused on replicating Springsteen's voice, which prevented him from connecting emotionally to the music. With guidance, he was able to let go of the pressure to sound identical and instead focus on delivering a performance that felt authentic. That shift proved to be a breakthrough in embodying the role.

Bruce Springsteen's Reaction to Jeremy Allen White's Recordings

Springsteen himself reportedly reassured White after hearing one of his early recordings, telling the actor that while he captured the essence of the voice, he was also making the songs his own. For Jeremy Allen White, that validation eased his anxieties and gave him confidence not only in the music but in his entire portrayal of the rock legend.

With 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' set for release this fall, anticipation is building to see how White transforms into Springsteen on screen. The film promises a raw and intimate look at a pivotal moment in the Boss's career—and for Jeremy Allen White, it marks one of the most challenging and rewarding performances of his career.
