A short description of the project on IMDB details a Los Angeles police officer discovering “a local task force” that is “hiding a secret that puts residents of his childhood neighborhood in danger.”

The Hollywood Reporter wrote last year that Punk plays a sergeant’s “brutal right-hand man” in the film. The movie also features roles from artists Freddie Gibbs and YG.

“Night Patrol” is set to make its world premiere on Friday at the Fantastic Film Festival in Austin, Texas. It will later also air at Beyond Fest in Los Angeles.
