Netflix release new ‘Springsteen on Broadway’ trailer
Netflix has dropped the trailer for Springsteen on Broadway, and it’s already clear this one’s going to hit hard. Landing just a day after The Boss wraps up his Broadway residency, the concert film arrives December 16th, promising a raw, intimate slice of Springsteen at his storytelling best.
Shot during his run at the Walter Kerr Theatre in New York, the film isn’t your standard concert cut-and-paste. If the trailer’s anything to go by, expect stripped-back performances, a few gut-punch moments, and plenty of stories from The Boss himself—equal parts charm, grit, and heart.
Springsteen talks about meeting his wife and bandmate Patti Scialfa outside New Jersey haunt The Stone Pony; he also discusses his father and later on jokes, “Everybody has a love-hate relationship with their hometown. Take me, I’m Mr. ‘Born To Run’… I currently live ten minutes from my hometown.”
The Netflix synopsis reads: “Springsteen on Broadway is a solo acoustic performance written and performed by Tony Award, Academy Award, and 20-time Grammy Award winner Bruce Springsteen. Based on his worldwide best-selling autobiography ‘Born to Run‘, Springsteen on Broadway is a unique evening with Bruce, his guitar, a piano, and his very personal stories.
“In addition, it features a special appearance by Patti Scialfa. Netflix will allow global audiences to see the show critics have been raving about from anywhere they are”.
