AceShowbiz - As posted on his blog, "The Wrestler" director Darren Aronofsky says that he is waiting for Bruce Springsteen to finish a song which will be featured in his upcoming movie. "Bruce springsteen wrote a beautiful original song for the closing the film," Darren wrote.
The Wrestler, which talks about an over-the-hill 1980s-era pro grappler who quits the business after a heart attack and moves in with a stripper to build a relationship with her son, was originally offered to public this weekend but the film has been held back as it is not ready yet. Part of the delay is down to the work of Bruce's unfinished touch. "It is difficult to rush him (Springsteen)," an insider named Vincent Maraval says.
Bruce's new song, which is also titled "The Wrestler", is described as a wonderful acoustic music that captures the spirit of the movie. "Called THE WRESTLER it is a wonderful acoustic piece. makes me choke up every time I hear it," Darren continues writing. "He really captured the spirit of the film and mickey's character in the piece."
Additionally, Wild Bunch, as financial supporter for the film, plan to debut Darren's movie later in Venice right after Bruce's song is finished. "Concurrent with Toronto, because they're waiting for Bruce Springsteen to finish his song for the movie's credits. Wild Bunch expects to sell The Wrestler at Toronto. It will also close the New York Fest," a songwriter, Anna Thompson, says.
