Produced by 20th Century Studios and directed by Hostiles and Out of the Furnace’s Scott Cooper, the film’s screenplay (written by Cooper) is based on Warren Zanes’ Bruce Springsteen biography of the same name.
Bruce and his manager Jon Landau are closely involved with the project, Variety reports.
Disney Live Action and 20th Century Studios president David Greenbaum said of the film: “It is a once-in-a-lifetime honor to be collaborating with Bruce Springsteen, an inspiring and incomparable artist who represents so much to so many.
“The deep authenticity of his story is in great hands with my friend Scott Cooper whom I am thrilled to be collaborating with once again.”

However, he praised Jeremy Allen White, calling him “a terrific actor” and adding: “He’s got an interpretation of me that I think the fans will deeply recognize.
“He’s just done a great job... He sings well, he sings very well,” he added.
The ‘Streets of Philadelphia’ star also made actor Stephen Graham emotional after he praised Stephen’s portrayal of his father, Douglas Springsteen, in the film.

“I feel really lucky we all had Bruce’s blessing on this film,” he added. “It’s the story of a very particular moment in Bruce’s life when he was trying to reconcile the pressure of success and the ghosts of his past.”
April’s teaser footage showed black and white flashback scenes to Bruce’s sometimes traumatic childhood interspersed with his singing and songwriting sessions from the 80s, as he worked on finding himself, Deadline reports.
A first-look image of a brooding Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen was released by the studios in October 2024, and later more images of the cast emerged from photographers who were present while the film shot scenes on location in New Jersey.
