Bruce Springsteen is releasing a greatest hits collection

Bruce Springsteen has announced 'Best Of Bruce Springsteen', which is set for release next month.

The Boss has announced he will release the career-spanning Best Of Bruce Springsteen on April 19.

Fans can expect songs from 1973’s Greeting From Asbury Park, NJ all the way to 2020’s Letter To You.

The physical version contains 18 tracks, and 31 songs make up the digital release.

In other news, Springsteen is said to have been hired as a consultant on a feature film about the making of his 1982 album Nebraska.

The 74-year-old rock legend was reportedly hired by ‘Black Mass’ director Scott Cooper, who is probably best known for his 2009 film ‘Crazy Heart’ starring Jeff Bridges as a washed-up country singer.

Showbiz 411 reported the rumoured collaboration and added: “Austin Butler is a possibility (to play Bruce) but after playing Elvis Presley he might not be the right choice.”

Sources also said Cooper does not have Timothée Chalamet in mind to play Springsteen, as the actor is about to play Bob Dylan in another film.

‘Nebraska’ was lauded as an introspective turn for the Born to Run rocker, and is said to have been inspired by a bout of depression.
