The biopic Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, which chronicles Bruce Springsteen’s personal journey and the making of his 1982 album Nebraska, opened with a domestic take of just US$9.1 million (global total US$16.1 m) despite a US$55 m budget and wide release; it received a mediocre B+ CinemaScore and 60% on Rotten Tomatoes, underscoring the challenge even major-star biopics face in today’s market.
