Bruce Springsteen, one of the most decorated musicians of all time, has faced the final frontier and hit a bum note. His new biopic film, Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, has struggled at the international box office after its release on October 24. The movie, which stars Jeremy Allen White and focuses on the creation of Springsteen’s 1982 acoustic album ‘Nebraska,’ came to be via a very generous $55 million budget from Walt Disney Company-owned 20th Century Studios. Unfortunately, it has only made $16.1 million back so far globally—with only $7 million of that coming from overseas. Internationally, $1.6 million came from fans of the Boss in the U.K. and another $1 million from Germany, but countries like Italy failed to break the million mark. However it might still have a chance to break even, as it hasn’t yet released in 20% of overseas territories, like Japan and Korea.
