M. Night Shyamalan brings together the narratives of UNBREAKABLE and SPLIT in one explosive, all-new comic-book thriller: GLASS. The film, which stars Bruce Willis, James McAvoy, Anya Taylor-Joy, Sarah Paulson, and Samuel L. Jackson as Mr. Glass, will be a presence at the San Diego Comic-Con this week, with a panel scheduled to take place in Hall H tomorrow. Shyamalan will be there with the cast and "a surprise".
By this point, I'm sure all of us know that this "surprise" is the film's trailer, which is all set to hit tomorrow. Yesterday we brought you one of those pesky little trailer teasers featuring Bruce Willis' David Dunn, and the day before that we shared another one which highlighted James McAvoy's The Beast. And today we have an all-new trailer tease, this time featuring none other than Mr. Samuel L. Jackson himself as the one and only Mr. Glass.
Personally, I find these trailer teases to be a bit annoying, but all the same, you can check out all three trailer teases below. And while we're here and all, the official synopsis for GLASS goes like this:
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.
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.
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).
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 and Kevin Frakes, who executive produce. Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum also serve as executive producers.
A Blinding Edge Pictures and Blumhouse production, GLASS will be released by Universal Pictures in North America on January 18, 2019.
