While the film was a big financial hit, there hasn't been any word on an official sequel to Glass, even though there are plenty of ways that the beloved superhero franchise could continue on into the future.
Night Shyamalan Says No to 'Glass' Sequels, Originally Wrote the Horde From 'Split' Into 'Unbreakable' The writer-director has no interest building a cinematic universe.
Night Shyamalan says he 'probably' won't ever make another sequel. Those pesky franchises are more trouble than they're worth. Throughout his directing career, M. Night Shyamalan has only made two sequels — Split (2016) and Glass (2019) — both of which served as follow-ups to 2000's Unbreakable.
Glass is a 2019 superhero film written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, who also produced with Jason Blum, Marc Bienstock, and Ashwin Rajan. The film is a crossover and sequel to Shyamalan's previous films Unbreakable (2000) and Split (2016) and the third and final installment in the Unbreakable trilogy.
The deaths of the three main characters are not M. Night Shyamalan's only twists in the ending of Glass as he also introduces the secret organization known as Clover. This is seen as the sniper who kills Kevin and the guard who drowns David are both shown to have clover tattoos on their hands. This then leads to Dr.
M Night Shyamalan on Glass, possible sequels, and THAT reveal
Who is the real villain in Glass?
Jackson's Elijah Price made for a memorable, complex villain in both Glass and Unbreakable, but it's unclear what Mr. Glass' real superpower was. Unbreakable centers on David Dunn (Bruce Willis), a normal man who survives a horrifying train wreck without a single scratch.
“As the characters believe in the comic book world the primary colors in the film become more dominate. As they stop believing they fade to a monochromatic world. The pink room where they do therapy is pink, red fading to white, because this is where they stop believing.”
At the end of that movie, the Beast lets Casey, one of the teenagers he has kidnapped, go—all because she has suffered sexual abuse throughout her life. (He only eats innocent girls who have never suffered.) The villain distills the movie's philosophy in one creepy line: “Rejoice! The broken are more evolved.”

The Unbreakable trilogy, also known as the Eastrail 177 Trilogy, is an American superhero thriller and psychological horror film series. The films were written, produced, and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. The trilogy consists of Unbreakable (2000), Split (2016), and Glass (2019).
Glass and the many personalities who inhabit the body of James McAvoy's Kevin Wendell Crumb, this universe has its roots not in the comic libraries of Marvel or DC but rather in Shyamalan's own imagination.
Glass combines characters from Unbreakable and Split in a showdown showcasing their unique superhuman traits in a psychiatric facility setting. While Glass can be enjoyed as a standalone film, watching Unbreakable and Split enriches the narrative with important context and character connections.
He has nigh-invulnerability that renders him immune to disease and injuries, including traumas and shocks that would kill a normal human. Additionally, David possesses the ability of psychometry.
The film ends with its three superpowered men dead, but with Mr. Glass getting the last laugh; he's arranged for footage of their battle to be distributed around the world, thus informing humanity that superpowered beings are among them. That ending has been a point of contention among critics and film journalists.
Night Shyamalan, Glass is the epic continuation of Split and Unbreakable. It chronicles Mr. Glass's (Samuel L. Jackson) master plan to reveal that superheroes exist by manipulating Kevin Wendell Crumb (James McAvoy) and David Dunn (Bruce Willis).
There have been no discussions about continuing the Unbreakable franchise with a fourth installment, but M. Night Shyamalan has now revealed a scrapped idea for Glass that would have connected The Visit to the series.
The first major surprise of the film occurs when David's son Joseph (Spencer Treat Clark), reveals the hidden connection between Kevin and his father, after the realisation that train accident that Mr Glass caused, which left David as the sole survivor, also killed Kevin's father.
The camera then tracks over to reveal Bruce Willis, reprising his role of David Dunn (evidenced by his nametag), who dryly confirms the old villain's identity as Mr. Glass and walks out. It's a plot twist that reveals the characters of Split and Unbreakable have been in the same world all along.
Kevin's more evil personalities, “Dennis” and “Patricia” are awaiting the arrival of “The Beast” which is Kevin's 24th personality and is an animal-like killer who seeks to rid the world of the “impure,” which are those who have not suffered.
When Dennis takes one victim (Sula) into a private room, Casey whispers to the girl to “pee on yourself” as a defensive strategy. Given Dennis's germaphobia, the ploy works, although it soon becomes evident that sex slavery is not on the table.
So split is about a man called Kevin who has 25 different personalities . One that's a old woman one that's a strict man named Dennis and one that's a 9 year old boy that likes to listen to Kanye West ,ect. So Dennis kidnaps three teenage girls to feed the (SPOILER WARNING) Beast . the 26'th personality.
Will we see a fourth 'Unbreakable' movie? Nope, “Glass” is the end of this trilogy and this chapter in Shyamalan's life. “This is only always supposed to be this story,” he says. “I have a couple of original ideas in my head, and for me, the fun of it is to start over.
Let's pour a few out for our main characters. Shyamalan doesn't mess around: The ending of the climactic fight scene finds Dunn, Mr. Glass and Kevin all dead. Psychiatrist Ellie Staple (Sarah Paulson) has brought them to a mental hospital to talk them out of thinking they're comic-book characters.
Glass was shot in Pennsylvania, USA. The Psychiatric Hospital scenes took place at Allentown State Hospital, 1600 Hanover Ave, Allentown. Filming also took place in Philadelphia, PA, USA. Philadelphia, PA, USA.
