The first trailer for the upcoming Bruce Springsteen biopic Deliver Me from Nowhere has dropped, and not everyone is thrilled about it.

Starring Jeremy Allen White as ‘The Boss’ himself, the film is set to hit cinemas on October 24 and charts the making of Springsteen’s 1982 album Nebraska, widely regarded by fans and critics as one of his most intimate and stripped-back records.

In the trailer, the 34-year-old Emmy winner is seen performing ‘Born to Run’ and while some fans were full of praise for White’s transformation, others were far from convinced.

“Outstanding choice for an actor to portray Bruce… I mean Spot on! I can not wait to check this out,” one excited fan posted on Instagram. Another user added: “What a cast, what a magnificent choice Jeremy is to play Bruce. After watching this movie I’m gonna need you to change the name from “deliver me from nowhere” to “deliver me to the hospital” because holy s**t.”

However, not everyone appeared convinced by the casting of the US actor, best known for playing hot-headed chef Carmy in Hulu’s The Bear. One unimpressed user opined,”Sigh… I adore Bruce but I’m sorry to say that I just don’t see Bruce Springsteen in this actor.”

And the criticism didn’t stop there. Springsteen’s outspoken political views also seemed to stir up resentment, with some saying they wouldn’t be watching the film at all.

The singer recently made headlines during his May 15 concert in Manchester, where he launched a scathing attack on Donald Trump’s presidency.

While introducing Land of Hope and Dreams, Springsteen, 75, said: “The mighty E Street Band is here tonight to call upon the righteous power of art, of music, of rock ‘n roll in dangerous times.

“In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration.

“Tonight we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experiment to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring!”

But fans were less than impressed — and made their feelings crystal clear.

“Has the chance to be good but I get the feeling it might not perform very well considering he just alienated half his audience,” one person wrote.

Another user blasted: “Ahhh, now all his recent anti-American rhetoric makes sense now, he was trying to make himself relevant to drum up interest in this garbage.”

And in a particularly fiery post, one user said: “Screw Springsteen’s anti-American a**! Don’t go see this. He gets zero support from me.”

Deliver Me From Nowhere, which is due to hit cinemas on 24th October this year, also features Brit acting legend, Stephen Graham.
