20th Century Studios this morning shared a first look at Jeremy Allen White suited up as Bruce Springsteen in Deliver Me From Nowhere, the studio’s forthcoming biopic based around the making of the musician’s 1982 album Nebraska. The film is currently in production. In the first look pic, the lead actor can be seen donning a typically Springsteen-esque fit: a plaid shirt and biker jacket. Scott Cooper is directing the biopic. Also starring are Harrison Sloan Gilbertson, Odessa Young, and Paul Walter Hauser. White and Springsteen recently linked in real life at the premiere of the documentary Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band.
Jeremy Allen White appeared at the film’s screening at The Museum of Modern Art in New York City, where he posed for pictures with Bruce Springsteen. Speaking to Deadline at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards, White teased the project. “I’m so excited to start this thing,” he said. “We’re going to start pretty soon. You know, I don’t want to talk about it too much. It feels wrong before getting there and starting the thing.” He continued, “But I can say I’ve got a really beautiful team of people helping me and Bruce has been really lovely and supportive and available, which has made this whole process an extra joy. His support and Jon Landau, his management support, who has a large role in the film as well. So I feel really lucky.” Source: deadline.com
What’s the plot of
A Complete Unknown? While the plot is still largely under wraps, we know that the film will follow a 19-year-old Dylan’s first arrival in New York City from Minnesota, as he seeks a career in music and soon skyrockets to worldwide fame. “It’s such an amazing time in American culture and the story of a young 19-year-old Bob Dylan coming to New York with, like, two dollars in his pocket and becoming a worldwide sensation within three years,” Mangold told Collider during a red-carpet interview in April 2023. “First being embraced into the family of folk music in New York, and kind of outrunning them at a certain point as his star rises so beyond belief.” Searchlight Pictures has released a new promotional video for the Bob Dylan movie A Complete Unknown. The new clip finds lead actor Timothée Chalamet recreating Dylan’s iconic “Subterranean Homesick Blues” video; it features Chalamet’s original rendition of the song, too.
A Complete Unknown hits theaters on December 25, 2024.
Columbia Records will release the film’s soundtrack, and it will include Chalamet’s cover of “Subterranean Homesick Blues.” Bob Dylan’s Bringing It All Back Home, the 1965 album that featured “Subterranean Homesick Blues,” reached No. 38 in Pitchfork’s “The 200 Best Albums of the 1960s.” Joining Chalamet will be Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, Dylan’s fictional girlfriend, inspired by the musician’s real-life former girlfriend and muse Suze Rotolo. Edward Norton will play Dylan’s fellow folk musician Pete Seeger, Monica Barbaro will play a young Joan Baez and Boyd Holbrook is rumoured to play Johnny Cash. halamet confirmed in a December 2023 interview that 70% of the soundtrack had already been recorded in a Californian studio with Nick Baxter, the film’s music supervisor. In the same interview, the actor also revealed that Dylan’s manager, Jeff Rosen, sent Chalamet 12 hours of unreleased Bob Dylan music from 1959 to 1964. “This might earn the ire and wrath of a lot of Bob fans, rightfully,” Chalamet pre-warned.
