Selena Gomez released behind-the-scenes footage from her upcoming film Getaway on her Yotube account today.

In the video, Gomez jokes around with a cameraman and what appears to be her co-star Ethan Hawke's stunt double. In Getaway Hawke plays a former racecar driver, who Gomez's character tries to carjack. The robbery goes wrong because Hawke's character is at mercy of his wife's kidnapper, during the attempted robbery, and Gomez's character has to come along for the ride.

The role marks the 21-year-old's second film, along with the edgy Spring Breakers, that further distances her from her clean-cut Disney image.

"I'm enjoying doing things that allow me to stretch my abilities," Gomez told WWD in April 2012. "I want to continue in that direction."

In an interview with Collider, Gomez admitted that she enjoyed working alongside Hawke.

"It was awesome! Ethan was incredible," she said. "He just would tell me stories about the previous projects that he's been a part of. He was like, 'Oh, I remember when I was your age and I was doing this and this.'"

Gomez said she also took pointers from the veteran actor.

"It was great! It was cool to have that. I remember writing down so many notes and things that he would say because he was really supportive and obviously amazingly talented. It was really fun," she said.

Several other seasoned actors appear in the film, including Angelina Jolie's father, Jon Voight, and British star Paul Freeman, of Raiders of the Lost Ark and Hot Fuzz fame.

Getaway is slated to open in U.S. theatres on Aug. 30.
