How cool is that? The Shameless alum really does resemble a young Springsteen, which makes for great casting. Although considering White’s status as a sex symbol, things might be too steamy for a “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out.”
This image came with the news that filming had officially begun for “Deliver Me From Nowhere.” Directed by Scott Cooper, the movie will focus on the making of Springsteen’s 1982 album “Nebraska.” Along with the image, Cooper offered a quote about the project, which reads:
While Jeremy Allen White has become synonymous with his role in The Bear (which is streaming with a Hulu subscription), he’s been taking on a number of unique movie roles, particularly in biopics. Prior to his role as Bruce Springsteen, he starred opposite Zac Efron in The Iron Claw, playing pro wrestlers and brothers The Von Erichs.
For his part, Bruce Springsteen responded to Jeremy Allen White’s casting, and seems to think he’s a good actor for the role. And the 33 year-old actor is definitely putting in the work, with White previously sharing how hard he worked at finding Springsteen’s voice. And considering just how many fans the Boss has, that detail is necessary.
