Actor Jeremy Allen White has reportedly been in touch with Bruce Springsteen via text and email as he prepares for his upcoming role portraying a young Springsteen in the forthcoming film exploring the making of the musician’s classic album ‘Nebraska’. The film, directed and written by Scott Cooper based on Warren Zane’s book ‘Deliver Me from Nowhere: The Making of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska’, was initially announced in January 2024. White was announced as part of the cast in April. The film will focus on the process Springsteen went through when creating the album and will explore its significant impact.
White’s attempts to get in touch with Springsteen seem to have failed so far as there has been no confirmation from the musician regarding their communication. White revealed he was excited to see Springsteen perform at his concert in Wembley. White said Springsteen texts “like a boss”.
The third season of The Bear, which includes White as one of the stars, has been released to mixed reviews. Rebecca Nicholson, writing for The Guardian, said: “Dogged repetition is the enemy of convincing storytelling. It needs to move. This means the excellent Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) is somewhat sidelined, both in the storyline and, to some extent, the season.

The structure would work for an extended cold open to establish Carmy’s mood; stretched to an entire episode, it’s an overindulgence.”
