More and more each and every day we are getting swamped with news regarding writer/director M. Night Shyamalan's upcoming simultaneous sequel to UNBREAKABLE and SPLIT. It was just yesterday that we shared (what I believe was) the very first clip from GLASS with you guys. That clip featured Mr. Glass coming into The Horde's room and trying to bring out The Beast. And if that clip wasn't enough, today we have another one for ya.
This one features Bruce Willis' The Overseer going toe-to-toe with James McAvoy's The Horde (something that was originally set to go down in the original UNBREAKABLE flick). The clip features the two throwing tables at each other and fighting like genuine superheroes, all before sailing out the window. It's pretty cool overall. But… The sad thing about the clip is that (and maybe this is just me) but it looks like Willis is yet again, sleepwalking through his role. This is especially going to be an issue for the final film as McAvoy seems to be giving it his all. What happened Bruce? Shakes head.
Anyhow, the clip comes to us from Entertainment Weekly over on Twitter and you can check it out below. After that, make sure to hit us up and let us know how excited you are for GLASS! And while we're here, here's the official GLASS synopsis:
M. Night Shyamalan brings together the narratives of two of his standout originals—2000’s Unbreakable, and 2016’s Split—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.
Returning with Willis and Jackson from UNBREAKABLE is Spencer Treat Clark as Dunn's son and Charlayne Woodard as Price's mother. Back with McAvoy from SPLIT is Anya Taylor-Joy (THE WITCH). Sarah Paulson (AMERICAN HORROR STORY) joins the cast this time around as well. And if you're looking forward to witnessing all the UN-SPLIT-ABLE mayhem this January, then you might be interested to know that the film has scored a PG-13 rating via the powers that be over at the MPAA for "violence including some bloody images, thematic elements, and language."
Shyamalan produced GLASS with Jason Blum of Blumhouse Productions, Ashwin Rajan, and Marc Bienstock. Steven Schneider, Gary Barber, Roger Birnbaum, and Kevin Frakes served as executive producers. GLASS is scheduled to twist and turn its way into theatres on January 18, 2019.
