Jeremy Allen White admits that it was tough playing Bruce Springsteen in the biopic “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere.”
“It was a tremendous amount of pressure,” the actor exclusively told Page Six at the 2025 Gotham Awards in New York City Monday night.
Luckily, White had some help from the Boss himself.
“Bruce texted me almost every night,” White shared. “And he was on set very often.”
“The Bear” star, 34, jokingly added that without those supportive texts from Springsteen, 76, he would have been “crying a lot more” than he already did.
In the biographical musical drama film, White portrays the Jersey rocker just when he is about to hit global stardom — and struggling to reconcile the pressures of success with his hardscrabble past.
