M. Night Shyamalan Debuts Poster And SDCC Plans For ‘Glass’

M. Night Shyamalan surprised everyone with an ultimate twist at the end of his film, Split, when the after-credit scene revealed that David Dunn (Bruce Willis) who was the lead character in Shymalan’s Unbreakable, is sitting at a diner watching a news story about Kevin Wendell Crumb aka The Horde (James McAvoy). The scene would tie together a superhuman universe from M. Night Shyamalan. In April of 2017, Shyamalan would announce a sequel for both Unbreakable and Split and that sequel called Glass, centered around Samuel L. Jackson‘s Unbreakable character, Mr. Glass. Shymalan revealed the first poster for the film via Twitter.

Shyamalan also revealed that he and the rest of the cast of Glass will be headed to San Diego Comic Con for a Hall H panel on Friday, July 20th!

M. Night Shyamalan brings together the narratives of two of his standout originals—2000’s Unbreakable, from Touchstone, and 2016’s Split, from Universal—in one explosive, all-new comic-book thriller: Glass.

From Unbreakable, Bruce Willis returns as David Dunn as does Samuel L. Jackson as Elijah Price, known also by his pseudonym Mr. Glass. Joining from Split are James McAvoy, reprising his role as Kevin Wendell Crumb and the multiple identities who reside within, and Anya Taylor-Joy as Casey Cooke, the only captive to survive an encounter with The Beast.

Following the conclusion of Split, Glass finds Dunn pursuing Crumb’s superhuman figure of The Beast in a series of escalating encounters, while the shadowy presence of Price emerges as an orchestrator who holds secrets critical to both men.

Joining the all-star cast are Unbreakable’s Spencer Treat Clark and Charlayne Woodard, who reprise their roles as Dunn’s son and Price’s mother, as well as Golden Globe Award winner Sarah Paulson (American Horror Story series).

This riveting culmination of his worldwide blockbusters is produced by Shyamalan and Blumhouse Production’s Jason Blum, who also produced the writer/director’s previous two films for Universal. They produce again with Ashwin Rajan and Marc Bienstock, and Steven Schneider, who executive produces.

A Blinding Edge Pictures and Blumhouse production, Glass will be released by Universal Pictures in North America on January 18, 2019, and by Buena Vista International abroad.
