Jeremy Allen White is Bruce Springsteen

Ugly Bruce.

Jeremy Allen White is Gene Wilder in The Bruce Springsteen story!

Booo. Doesn’t look a thing like him. Where’s the chin?

Bruce was sexy, Jeremy Allen White is… interesting looking. They could’ve chosen better.

He would have made a good Bob Dylan. Do with that what you will.

Springsteen is a good looking guy. Boo!

This will be such a flop. No-one outside of the US cares about Bruce Springsteen. He was on Graham Norton the other day and went down like a lead balloon. Also Springsteen talks like he's got a brain disorder.

and there's just absolutely nothing interesting about him. I know their genres are completely different but it reminds me of ONJ. You can love her with all your heart, and I do, but I would never buy a bio by her or go see a bio pic of her. Both of them led their off stage life very much away from the spotlight and anything that would have made this type of thing interesting. I mean what do you want to learn about Bruce?

His autobiographical show was quite a hit on Broadway.

Sam Palladio, who was in the TV show Nashville, is who should play Bruce. He looks like him and he can sing.

I think he resembles a younger Bruce actually. Not a dead ringer but I can buy this before Timothy as BD. Jeremy also can carry a role convincingly.

Who is foisting the completely uncharismatic, homely, mid talent Jeremy Allen White on us, and why?

Bruce Springsteen was hot AF and had a strong sexual energy. Jeremy Allen White is a troll.

To R4-You are kind of correct!! He is a "Dylan" type.

To R11, the same people who "HOISTED" GAY TIMOTHEE on the American public but JAW can act.

What is it about Jeremy Allen White that is so 'unique' looking?

If Dustin Hoffman and Gene Wilder had a baby and passed on just their bad genes - you'd get Jeremy.

R14 bug eyes, big nose, weak chin combo?

Too soon for a Springsteen bio pic.

Bruce didn't and doesn't have a rat face.

Will they do AI?

[quote]No-one outside of the US cares about Bruce Springsteen.

Bruce is huge in Europe. He sells out football/soccer stadiums in country after country. Bigger than he is in the States, in fact. (And bigger than Jeremy Allen White.)

That said, I can't see this film being a hit. Too niche, even for his fans.

The Academy loves biopics?

The Academe LOVES biographical moving pictures!

If he was younger, Ben Affleck would have been a good choice.

Did anyone ask for this?

Did Springsteen suffer enough to give an actor a meaty enough role to win an Oscar?

Dylan and Springsteen are still alive. Their biopics don't stand a chance at awards [See: John, Sir Elton].

"Maria," on the other hand.....

R21, Before they got sick of them.

R24, "Suffer enough"? Bruce is from NEW JERSEY! He played gigs at the SHORE! He had to deal with a DIVORCE from a MODEL!

How much more can one man TAKE?!

[quote]Did anyone ask for this?

How many of the big budget films of the past year did anyone ask for?

Does any sane person ever ask for a biopic of an entertainment celebrity? (And if so, what the fuck is wrong with them?)

Did anyone ask for every house, new or old, to be painted inside and out, top to bottom in grey? With floating engineered simulated woodgrain pattern, also in grey?

Did anyone ask for a Taylor Swift? For COVID?

i've had sufficient of this ugly guy.

Rocketman won an Oscar and two Golden Globes.

I'm looking forward to both the Dylan and Springsteen movies.

Not much point in watching a “young Bruce Springsteen” biopic if you sit there feeling no urge to fuck him.

R29, For SONG! Pardon me for being vague, but in the context of the thread I was thinking of Best Actor/Actress categories.

A Bruce without sex appeal is like making an Elvis bio without the sex. Makes no sense

I'd rather see a decent biopic about George Harrison. He was an interesting guy.

Jeremy Allen White was very good on Shameless. Why no honors for him then?

I would suck his dick all night long.

He was the little black boy from the old jack in the box commercials-so cute.

Really, r32 (comment about Elvis)?

Rami won the Oscar as Freddie, yet IIRC no gay sex was shown (was there even a kiss?), and even AIDS was barely alluded to. At least in "Elvis" we see him collapse from drug use and in bed with groupies.
