The music icon, who was joined by his wife Patti Scialfa, attended the star-studded red carpet on the opening night of the 2025 AFI Fest.
After the red carpet, the spotlight shifted to the stage where director Scott Cooper introduced the lead stars including The Bear actor Jeremy Allen White, Jeremy Strong, Odessa Young, child star Matthew Anthony Pellicano and others.
“The man who has for six decades given the world so many gifts. I felt this man was at the exact right time in my life when I most needed to,” the director said, noting that he never knew that he would make a film about him.
“So often they say, you don't meet your heroes because they will disappoint you. This gentleman far exceeded my expectations. He was an incredibly generous collaborator,” he shared, adding that he would entertain his questions day or night.

The film chronicles Springsteen’s rise to global stardom, capturing the challenges and pressures he faced while recording his 1982 studio album Nebraska.
"My first thing was, can I perform these songs with a little bit of honesty? Can I do justice to the lyrics?" he told People.
"He had years and years of playing in rooms like this and in s----- P.A. systems and really like testing his voice and training, and I didn't have that," the actor shared, adding, "I didn't have that time, so I needed to shout and that took me out. I remember recording 'Born in the U.S.A.' and losing my voice for a couple days."
