Bruce Springsteen was frequently seen on the New Jersey set of Deliver Me From Nowhere, a film that documents the creation of his iconic album Nebraska. However, it seems he might have been present more than necessary.
Tod Maitland, a member of the Oscar-nominated sound team behind the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown, also worked on the Springsteen project. He recently shared his thoughts on the differences in how both artists contributed to their respective films.
Speaking at a screening of the Dylan film in New York on Tuesday, Maitland was asked about Dylan’s role in the project. He revealed that Dylan had only spoken to the film’s director, James Mangold, once, well before filming began. In contrast, Maitland highlighted that Springsteen was much more involved in Deliver Me From Nowhere.
“Bruce was there almost every single day, to the point where he’s, like, in the way,” Maitland said, laughing.
The film stars Jeremy Allen White as Springsteen, with Jeremy Strong playing the role of the singer’s manager, Jon Landau. It is based on Warren Zanes’ book, Deliver Me from Nowhere: The Making of Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska.
As of now, Deliver Me From Nowhere does not have an official release date.
