As a lifelong Springsteen fan, I'm cautiously optimistic. The Nebraska era is such a fascinating choice - hope they capture the rawness of those recording sessions.

Jeremy Strong as Landau is inspired casting! After Succession, he's proven he can play intense creative relationships so well. This duo is going to be electric on screen.

I wonder if they'll show the famous 4-track recorder Springsteen used for Nebraska. That lo-fi production was revolutionary for its time. The details matter in biopics like this.

The cast looks amazing but I hope they don't glamorize the story too much. Nebraska was born from darkness and personal struggle - that rawness needs to come through.

Seeing Stephen Graham play Bruce's father is going to be heartbreaking. Their complicated relationship shaped so much of Springsteen's music. Bring tissues for this one!
