How Glass‘s Stunt Coordinator Channeled James McAvoy’s Inner Beast
M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable came out in 2000, and to get the movie made, the director deliberately billed it as a film about anything other than superheroes. Nineteen years on, a slew of superhero films have erupted from Hollywood, and they are by and large nothing like Shyamalan’s trilogy, which also includes 2016’s Split, and now, Glass. Is this final chapter even a superhero movie?
How Glass’s Production Designer Utilized a Defunct Psychiatric Ward
Are superheroes real? The central characters in Glass, M. Night Shyamalan’s conclusion to the trilogy that began with Unbreakable 19 years ago and was followed by Split in 2016, aim to find out. Chief among them is Dr. Ellie Staple (Sarah Paulson), an unorthodox psychiatric doctor who places David Dunn (Bruce Willis) and Kevin Wendell Crumb (James McAvoy) under her care in a sparsely populated Philadelphia sanitarium.
Know Before You Go: Five Things to Prepare You to See Glass
When M. Night Shyamalan released Unbreakable in 2000, it was initially met with confusion. The horror movie master had released a film with two of the day’s biggest stars, but it wasn’t typical scare fare. The thriller was deeply disturbing, but without things going ‘boo,’ the genius of Shyamalan’s approach was missed. In the years that followed, fans became more appreciative of the hidden surprises, but it really wasn’t until 2016 that things became as clear as,

The World Doubts Superheroes Exist in New Glass Trailer
The costume design on superhero films can be truly remarkable. They are often customized pieces of protection and equipment, plus they look incredibly cool. However, if people possessing superhuman strength, intelligence, or invincibility actually existed in our world, they probably wouldn’t spring for all the fashion accessories. So how could you spot them? In the latest trailer for Glass, Dr. Ellie Staple (Sarah Paulson) doubts that any of her patients have sprung from the pages of a comic book.
Elijah Finds the Equal He’s Been Searching for in New Glass Teaser

The climax of Split was uncovering the existence of the Beast within Kevin Crumb’s many personalities.
New Glass Trailer Teases Elijah Price’s Sinister Plan
“Elijah’s changed over the years. He’s given up.” These are the first words we hear in the new Glass trailer, and we’d be wise not to believe them. While Glass opens with Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson) locked up in an asylum and heavily sedated (Sarah Paulson’s Dr. Ellie Staple keeps Price dulled on drugs), we know that Price, also known as Mr. Glass, is only just getting started.

Samuel L. Jackson’s Mr. Glass is Back in M. Night Shyamalan’s Upcoming Glass
Samuel L. Jackson has had about every kind of role known to man, but he plays a great villain. His performance in Django Unchained as the cunning head house slave, Stephen, gave us all chills. Even in films like Pulp Fiction, where he plays more of an anti-hero, no one can forget his menacing delivery of Ezekiel 25:17. Now, his Mr. Glass character’s name graces the title of the third movie in the Unbreakable franchise.
Unbreakable and Split Sequel Glass Begins Filming
The mastermind of mass destruction is back. Director M. Night Shyamalan tweeted that production has begun on Glass.

Shyamalan will be tying the films together in a trilogy ending with Glass.
M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass Will Finish Trilogy Connecting Split and Unbreakable
In 2000, writer/director M. Night Shymalan released Unbreakable, starring Bruce Willis as David Dunn, the sole survivor of a devastating train wreck.

Jackson), a mysterious stranger who appears to be the opposite of David—he’s afflicted with a condition that make his bones as brittle as glass.
