End of Watch opens in theaters today and in support of its release, Open Road Films has made available two new behind-the-scenes featurettes. These videos provide a sneak peek into the making of the dramatic thriller, with the cast – including Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena – as well as director David Ayer discussing the making of the movie. All involved attempted to make the film as gritty and realistic as possible, aiming to show the officers of the Los Angeles Police Department as they’re not often shown on film.

In addition to Gyllenhaal and Pena, End of Watch features Anna Kendrick, Natalie Martinez, Frank Grillo, America Ferrera, and David Harbour.

The Plot:

From the writer of Training Day, End of Watch is a riveting action thriller that puts audiences at the center of the chase like never before. Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña star as young LA police officers who discover a secret that makes them the target of the country’s most dangerous drug cartel.
