Bruce Springsteen Biopic "Deliver Me From Nowhere" Premiering At New York Film Festival
“Deliver Me From Nowhere,” starring Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen, has been added to the New York Film Festival lineup as the Spotlight Gala selection. The movie will be screening September 28th at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall. Springsteen will attend alongside co-stars Jeremy Strong and Odessa Young. Based on Warren Zanes’ biography, the film focuses on Springsteen’s early ’80s career crossroads while creating “Nebraska” and recording demos for “Born in the U.S.A.” Strong plays manager Jon Landau, and Young will play Springsteen’s love interest. Director Scott Cooper says the festival feels like “a spiritual home” and called exploring Springsteen’s life “one of the most profound creative experiences of my life.” Festival artistic director Dennis Lim praised the film as a “fitting tribute to a living legend” with “intimacy and immediacy” rare in music biopics.

Florence + The Machine Hint At Their Return
As teases go, Florence + The Machine shared a great one yesterday. The band put out a creepy new teaser video that hints they're working on new music. The short clip shows singer Florence Welch digging frantically in an empty field while wearing a long red dress and matching shoes. She stares into the hole she's dug and lets out three scary screams. The band didn't give any details about what the video means, but it follows some hints Welch dropped last month on social media. She posted photos that included a studio whiteboard with words like "clarity," "power," and "beauty" written on it. Other pictures showed her working in the studio with IDLES guitarist Mark Bowen and her notebook with themes like "witchcraft," "folk horror," and "magic." This would be the band's first new material since their 2022 album.
