Deliver Me From Nowhere follows Springsteen in the early 1980s during a crossroads in his music career. As his stardom increased, Springsteen struggled with fame and suffered from depression. With a four-track recorder, Springsteen recorded songs without his E Street Band in a house in Colts Neck, New Jersey, from the end of December 1981 into January 1982.
The demos became Nebraska, Springsteen's sixth album. Nebraska was a dark, haunting album that featured some of Springsteen's best songwriting. The unconventional Springsteen album is ranked No. 150 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

Written and directed by Scott Cooper, Deliver Me From Nowhere is based on Warren Zanes' 2023 book. Paul Walter Hauser, Odessa Young, Stephen Graham, Harrison Gilbertson, and Johnny Cannizzaro round out the cast. Jeremy Strong is also rumored to be playing Jon Landau, Springsteen's longtime manager, producer, and collaborator.
Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska has profoundly shaped my artistic vision," Cooper said in a statement via Variety. "The album's raw, unvarnished portrayal of life's trials and resilience resonates deeply with me. Our film aims to capture that same spirit, bringing Warren Zanes' compelling narrative of Bruce's life to the screen with authenticity and hope, honoring Bruce's legacy in a transformative cinematic experience."
Deliver Me From Nowhere will be released sometime in 2025.
