Jeremy Allen White is transitioning from a role in the series «Bear» to the lead role in a biographical film about Bruce Springsteen.
The busy actor is currently starring in the dramedy series «Bear», - which has captivated fans for several years. Three months ago, rumors surfaced that White would play the lead role in a biographical film about Springsteen, which will tell the story of the creation of the iconic album «Nebraska».
The 33-year-old actor spoke briefly with journalists about the upcoming film, revealing that he is learning to play the guitar and also plans to sing in the film.
There is always some dissatisfaction when actors play singers, especially legendary artists. However, over the years, actors have often surprised audiences with their ability to accurately imitate their colleagues.
Welsh actor Taron Egerton, 34, played Elton John, 77, in the film «Rocketman» in 2019 and impressed everyone with his performance of all the songs in the film. He even performed with Elton John at live concerts.
On the other hand, there are actors who are remarkably similar to the singer they are imitating, but do not sing themselves. American actor Rami Malek, 43, played Freddie Mercury, performing songs to playback, and hoped that everyone would «hear as much Freddie as possible» in the film «Bohemian Rhapsody».
The biography of Amy Winehouse was a noticeable failure for many fans. People were not only dissatisfied, but also outraged by the performance of English actress Marisa Abela in the biographical film «Back to Black». Most reviews did not address whether Abela could sing, but questioned why the singer’s own voice was not used for the film.
One Reddit user commented: «This is insulting to Amy Winehouse herself and doesn’t look anything like her. Hollywood should stop making biopics and let people rest in peace».
Nevertheless, White is looking forward to the opportunity to work on his process and put all his efforts into it. «We will try, we will do everything we can», - White told Variety magazine. «Yes, we will try»
