End Game is a 2006 action/thriller film, written and directed by Andy Cheng. The film stars Cuba Gooding, Jr. as Secret Service agent Alex Thomas, who is shot in the hand, while unsuccessfully trying to protect the President (played by Jack Scalia) from an assassin's bullet. Later, with the help of a persistent newspaper reporter named Kate Crawford (played by Angie Harmon), he uncovers a vast conspiracy behind what initially appeared to be a lone gunman. James Woods, Burt Reynolds, and Anne Archer co–star in this film that was originally set to be shown in cinemas by MGM in 2005, but was delayed by the takeover from Sony and eventually sent direct to DVD.
