We have a brand new motion poster forGlassto feast our eyes upon. But that’s not all, as it’s also been promised that a new trailer for M. Night Shyamalan’s latest is coming later this week. This will serve as a follow-up to last year’s pleasantly surprisingSplitwhich, in addition to being a very satisfying movie on its own accord, turned out to be a surprise sequel of sorts toUnbreakable. Shyamalan didn’t make us wait nearly as long for the third movie in the trilogy, which will bring together Mr.Glass, David Dunn and The Beast for an epic showdown.
This particular motion poster is focusing onJames McAvoy’s The Beast, aka Kevin Wendell Crumb. The poster plays on the title, with the image forming as broken pieces of glass slowly come together. The caption provided with the poster is what will surely get fans excited, as it comes with the promise of fresh footage from the highly-anticipated sequel.
“James McAvoy is The Beast. Watch the new trailer for #GlassMovie Thursday.”
When the newGlasstrailer arrives on Thursday, it will be the first new footage we’ve seen since thefirst Glass trailer debuted at San Diego Comic-Conover the summer. While there were quite a few big trailers released during that event, TheSplit/Unbreakablesequel was one of the most buzzed about movies, and for good reason. The footage we’ve seen so far is absolutely stunning and, if the movie lives up to the trailer, this should wind up being a satisfying conclusion to this non-traditional superhero trilogy. The first movie belonged to Bruce Willis' David Dunn, withSplitcentered on James McAvoy’s The Best. As the title implies, it looks like this entry will belong to Samuel L. Jackson’sElijah Price, aka Mr.Glass.
It’s no secret that M. Night Shyamalan started off his career in very promising fashion, withThe Sixth SenseandUnbreakable. However, he spent a great many years churning out movies that simply didn’t live up to those early entries, such asAfter Earth,The Lady in the Waterand the much-malignedThe Last Airbender. But starting withThe Visit, and certainly withSplit, the old Shyamalan has re-emerged. Not only in terms of quality, butSplitwas a huge hit at the box office, earning $278 million worldwide, working from just a $9 million budget. That all but guaranteed a third entry would be put on the fast track. Let’s just hope that this latest entrycontinues the positive trend.
American Horror StoryandOcean’s 8star Sarah Paulson has joined the cast, with Anya Taylor-Joy returning fromSplit. Blumhouse and Universal are set to releaseGlasson June 19, 2025. We’ll be sure to bring you the trailer as soon as it’s made available on Thursday. In the meantime, be sure to check out the new motion poster from theGlass Movie Twitteraccount for yourself below.
