My new film is the sequel to #Unbreakable AND #Split. It was always my dream to have both films collide in this third film.

17 years after, a dream come true for writer/director M. Night Shyamalan will finally get to make a sequel to Unbreakable and to our delight, is also a sequel to his recent hit Split.
Bruce Willis will return to reprise his role David Dunn from Unbreakable, as well as Elijah Price aka Mr. Glass played by Samuel L. Jackson. They will be joined by Split characters Kevin Wendell Crumb (of course including Patricia, Dennis, Hedwig, Barry, Jade, Orwell, The Beast, Heinrich, Norma, Pol) played by James McAvoy and Anya Taylor Joy who played the role of Casey Cooke.
The film will be called “Glass” from the same team of Jason Blumhouse of Blumhouse Pictures and Universal Pictures.
“Glass” will arrive in US theaters January 18, 2019 from Universal Pictures. It will be locally distributed by United International Pictures through Columbia Pictures.
