He's conquered the music world, as well as Broadway - and now Bruce Springsteen has his sights set on the big screen, if recent reports are to be believed.

The Boss has a busy touring schedule in 2024 that includes several stop-offs in Ireland over the summer, but it looks like he may find a way to squeeze in a new film project, too.

Springsteen is allegedly working on a feature film based around the making of his 1982 album 'Nebraska', the record that spawned songs like 'Atlantic City' and 'Highway Patrolman'.

The album is regularly hailed as one of Springsteen's best, but also one of his starkest albums and was written while the then-32-year-old was in a depressive slump, recording the demos on a 4-track at home.

The 74-year-old is rumoured to have been hired as a consultant on the project, collaborating with Scott Cooper - who has previously directed musical drama 'Crazy Heart' as well as 'Black Mass' and supernatural horror 'Antlers' - and the director reportedly already has someone in mind to play Springsteen (and it's not Timothee Chalamet, who will play Bob Dylan in forthcoming biopic 'A Complete Unknown'.)

Who could play The Boss? Let the speculation begin...
