The movie, which hits theaters on October 24 through 20th Century Studios, brought plenty of excitement to Manhattan. At Alice Tully Hall, Springsteen joined the cast of Jeremy Allen White, Jeremy Strong, Stephen Graham, Odessa Young, and Gaby Hoffman on stage.

Once the introductions were over, Springsteen launched into a heartfelt rendition of ‘Land of Hopes and Dreams’, leaving the audience captivated.
Beyond the music, Springsteen took a moment to share a deeper message. “These days we have daily events reminding us that we’re living through particularly dangerous times,” he said.
He spoke about his experiences on the road, traveling the world as a kind of musical ambassador for America, trying to understand the gap between the country’s ideals and its reality.
Yet, even in the face of challenges, Springsteen remained hopeful. “For a lot of folks out there, she continues to be a land of hope and dreams. Not of fear, divisiveness, government censorship, or hatred,” he added.
