Watch the new trailer for SPRINGSTEEN: DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE. Starring Jeremy Allen White & Jeremy Strong. Only in theaters Oct 24.

“Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere” chronicles the making of Bruce Springsteen’s 1982 “Nebraska” album. Recorded on a 4-track recorder in Springsteen’s New Jersey bedroom, the album marked a pivotal time in his life and is considered one of his most enduring works—a raw, haunted acoustic record populated by lost souls searching for a reason to believe.

“‘Nebraska’ is where Bruce chose truth over expectation—a choice that still reverberates through everything he’s written since. At that crossroads, he could have chased the bright lights and the roar of arenas, but instead he turned inward, armed only with silence, a four-track recorder, and the courage to confront himself. For him to trust me with telling that story—the most vulnerable chapter of his life—is the greatest honor I’ve ever had as a filmmaker,” says Cooper.

“This film takes a couple years out of my life and looks at them very closely, a time when I made ‘Nebraska’ and went through some personal difficulties,” says Springsteen. “I’m so appreciative of Jeremy Allen White and the entire cast for their wonderful and moving performances—and Scott Cooper, one of the most generous collaborators I’ve ever worked with.”

Starring Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen, the film is directed by Scott Cooper from his adaptation of Warren Zanes’ book of the same name. “Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere” also features Jeremy Strong as Springsteen’s long-time confidant and manager, Jon Landau; Paul Walter Hauser as guitar tech Mike Batlan; Odessa Young as Faye; Stephen Graham as Springsteen’s father, Doug; Gaby Hoffman as Springsteen’s mother, Adele; and David Krumholtz as Columbia executive, Al Teller.

The film is produced by Cooper, Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Eric Robinson and Scott Stuber. Tracey Landon, Jon F. Vein and Zanes executive produce. The film includes an original score by composer Jeremiah Fraites, cinematography by Masanobu Takayanagi, production design by Stefania Cella, costume design by Kasia Walicka-Maimone, and is edited by Pamela Martin.

00:00It's a hard thing, realizing people aren't who you want them to be.

00:18I think Bruce is afraid of what's coming.
00:21And he feels guilty leaving behind the world he knows.
00:27It's like I'm always running away from something.
00:30Like in the past, just breathing down my neck.
00:35I don't have to tell you. We got to head it out of the park with the next record.
00:38Bruce Springsteen's on a rocket ship. We don't want to miss that window.
00:43We label it once you have your first top ten. They're just thinking about momentum.

00:55The only thing I can still believe in.
00:57Then we'll get it. Whatever it takes.
01:00Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night.
01:05Now they blew up his house too.
01:08This is a highly unorthodox career move.
01:11That's the point.
01:12He's channeling something deeply personal.
01:17But in this office, my office, we believe in Bruce Springsteen.
01:23The songwriting's a funny thing.
01:35It's about searching for something.

01:44This is where you're meant to go.
01:46I don't need to be perfect.
01:56I just want it to feel right.
01:58Maybe everything that dies, someday comes back.
