Bruce Springsteen and Jeremy Allen White are set to make an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Thursday, Oct. 2. The episode will be taped at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in Brooklyn. White, known for his role in TV's "The Bear," will portray Springsteen in the upcoming biopic "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere," which will be released on Friday, Oct. 24. The film was shot in various locations in New Jersey, including Freehold and Asbury Park. This will be Springsteen's second appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" after his previous visit in 2019.
While "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" typically films in Los Angeles, the show will be taped at the Brooklyn Academy of Music for the sixth time. The upcoming episode will feature music icons Public Enemy on Monday, Sept. 29, who recently performed at the Sea Hear Now festival in Asbury Park. Living Colour and Ivan Neville will also be guests on the Thursday show alongside Springsteen and White. The show had a brief hiatus after Kimmel made comments about the murder of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk on the Sept. 15 episode, but it returned on Sept. 23.
Springsteen faced backlash from conservatives for criticizing President Donald Trump during his recent tour. He expressed disappointment in the government's failure to protect the American people from an unfit president and a rogue government. The upcoming biopic "Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere" is set to be released by 20th Century Studios, which is owned by Disney, the same parent company as ABC, the network that airs "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"
