Mandy21:
I don't understand the last line of the article. Is he saying he replaced his previous "three closest friends"?

Jake Gyllenhaal recalls harrowing experience during police ride-along
Sept. 17, 2012, 5:21 PM EST
WENN
Jake Gyllenhaal says he was left scarred by his first midnight ride-along with Los Angeles police officers as he prepared to play a cop in the new film "End of Watch." The actor spent months patrolling at night before filming on the gritty new movie began.
He tells WENN, "The very first ride-along that I went on, someone was murdered in front of me. It was a gang shooting that was obviously drug-related. We were the second car on the scene, and I had no idea what to expect when I went on the first ride-along. I was scared at the time because it's really easy to become complacent.
"You show up for the 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. shift, which is a strange time of night to be working and you don't get a call until 3:30 in the morning. All of a sudden you get a call for a shooting and you have to deal with that and keep your mind in check.
"What was actually scariest was watching these police officers and asking myself, 'How will I function being an actor in the back seat of their car, which is an extra responsibility for them, to make sure we're safe and protected?' You got some pretty incredible guys dealing with both things at the same time. It was really life-affirming.
"My three closest friends are police officers from this adventure, and that's more important to me than any movie."
Mandy21:
Seems like he put a great deal of heart into making this film. I hope it continues to do well at box office.

Anna Kendrick on holding hands with Gyllenhaal
Wednesday, 26 September 2012
Anna Kendrick found it "weird" that Jake Gyllenhaal held her hand "the entire time" on the set of their new movie.
The actress plays the girlfriend of Jake's cop character in End of Watch. Anna was taken aback by Jake's dedication to achieving believable intimacy between them.
"I really followed his lead on that. I'm really glad that he was so open and giving on that end, just like somebody who wants to reach inside you and rip you open in this really incredible way," she told ign.com. "He was so deep in the sh*t by the time that I got there that he was completely mentally there all day every day. So when I showed up and he was holding my hand the entire time I was like, 'This is weird right?'
"But I think that's exactly why that relationship is believable in such a short amount of screen time."
End of Watch also stars Mike Peña and Natalie Martinez. Anna has revealed how she got into the mind-set of being a police officer's partner in the movie.
"It was interesting for me because it was one of those weird life imitating art situations where all of my rehearsals were with just Jake. So I've met Mike and I've met Natalie, but I didn't know them well at all, so when I came to set it really felt like my new boyfriend introducing me to his good friends," she smiled.
