I know this is hard for Deadline.com but I told you on JANUARY 12th that Scott Cooper, director of “Crazy Heart,” was making a movie with Bruce Springsteen.
The movie is about when Bruce was writing and recording his “Nebraska” album.
Now I’ve independently confirmed that Jeremy Allen White, aka the Chef from “The Bear,” will play Bruce. Can he sing? Play guitar? I guess we’ll find out.
Cooper and Springsteen have been connected before: the director’s movie, “Out of the Furnace” has often been compared to Bruce’s best work. I told you this on January 12th.
You can read the original story from January 12 th here. You’re welcome.
