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.
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.
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.
Yes! Glass is tagged as a sequel/crossover to Split and Unbreakable. It was also the last installment in the Eastrail 177 trilogy of Shyamalan's movies. Split tied the movies together following a cameo appearance before the credits.
Despite killing David and Kevin in the climax of the movie, the first objective of the Clover organization is not to simply eliminate superpowered people but rather to convince them they are ordinary. One of the central ideas of Glass that's extended from Split is the conflation of superpowers with mental illness.

What did the ending of Glass mean?
Glass recruits The Horde for a grand plan to reveal superhumans' existence in a climactic showdown. Dr. Staple's secret organization leads to tragic ends for the characters, but Mr. Glass posthumously reveals the existence of superhumans.
“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.”
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.

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.”

Shyamalan recently told Vulture that, technically, the universe he created "could" continue, but he also noted that he has no plans for another installment in the series. "That's not interesting to me. There's no danger in that.

Glass." Elijah Price, also known as Mr. Glass, is the overall main antagonist of the Eastrail 177 film trilogy, serving as the main antagonist of the 2000 film Unbreakable, the unseen overarching antagonist of the 2017 film Split and the titular villainous main protagonist of the 2019 film Glass.
The connection had always been part of the plan for the directors, as Shyamalan originally intended for Kevin Crumb to be part of Unbreakable. Kevin was only removed from Unbreakable so the narrative could focus on Dunn.
While the super abilities of both David and Crumb are obvious, Elijah Price has a more unique set of skills. Price's true power is his uncanny intellect, which allows him to plan, predict, and execute his elaborate schemes almost flawlessly.
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.

Similarly, the color yellow played a role throughout Split, but was always associated strongly with not just Kevin, but specifically his Beast personality at the end of the film, for the reasons that Shyamalan's now revealed.
