He further mentioned, "To move my family and me into his house while we get on our feet, it brings a special resonance to this movie, which is why it's so hard to put it out into the world".

As per 'Female First UK', Scott had been working on the movie with Jeremy Allen White, who plays Bruce in the biopic, on set when he got the "devastating call" that his house had burned down.

That same day he had worked on a scene with Jeremy singing Born To Run, and an emotional moment between the rock star and his dad Douglas, played by Stephen Graham.

He recalled, "(I spent) five minutes in the corner crying, understanding our lives would never be the same. (That was) without question, the hardest day I've ever had shooting a movie".

He said, "My daughters Ava and Stella are incredibly resilient. They've been better with this than I could have ever hoped, because we, like many others, lost everything. And then a week after our house burns, we had to euthanise our dog. It was like a bad country song. It was awful. It's been the worst year of my life, but also the best".

'Deliver Me From Nowhere' is set to release on October 24, 2025.
