Earlier this year, director M. Night Shyamalan returned to theaters with his brand new film Split, which offered a different type of twist ending for fans, as a post-credit scene revealed the film takes place in the same universe as his 2000 feature film, Unbreakable. Now, Shyamalan has taken to Twitter to announce that his next project will be a film colliding the two films and will be titled Glass.

“Finished the new script,” the writer-director wrote online. “It’s taken 17 years but I can finally answer the #1 question I get, ‘Are you making a f#&@ing sequel to Unbreakable or what?’ My new film is the sequel to Unbreakable AND Split. It was always my dream to have both films collide in this third film.”

Shyamalan went on to confirm that Bruce Willis will return as David Dunn along with James McAvoy as Kevin Wendell Crumb and his multiple identities, Anya Taylor-Joy will return as Casey Cooke, and Samuel L. Jackson is back as Elijah Price, aka Mr. Glass, for the feature film.

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.

I'm interested in this. M Night has been on a good comeback streak with Visit & Split. Plus any chance to see Anya Taylor Joy is always a plus.

As much as his output is altering in quality (looking at you all the films since Unbreakable), I'll be there first day. I do love Unbreakable. Guess this is my final excuse to not bother with Split.

Yep, I am so there. Unbreakable and Split were amazing. Very interested to see Night's cinematic universe with this storyline.

[Capt Lunatic]

I can not argue with this. A sequel to his two best movies is a solid deal.

I really hope the twist is Mr.Glass caused The Happening.

I do wish that since Split is in the same setting, they could say "Oh, he didn't actually ever have D.I.D., that was just a superpower thing." Would maybe get some of the criticism off.

[SmashTV]

I've yet to see Split, but it looks decent - at least by most of his standards for the last fifteen years. If he can return to form after two great films in Sixth Sense and Unbreakable then good luck to him.

Got to be fair to old mr shamalan on split. It was pretty good and the bit at the end got a legit ,Ron Simmons style damn out of me. Fingers crossed this is good.

[Big Poppa Pumpkin]

I didn't bother with Split because the trailer put me off, now I know this I will definitely check it out because Unbreakable was cool.

Post-credits scene will reveal that it's actually not a sequel at all but it's a movie within a movie in the same universe as the other two films.

I just watched "Split" last weekend and I thought it was generally fine. I thought it was trending in the right direction to start but got a little bogged down in the second half with too much screen time devoted to the psychologist and I also didn't love the ridiculous turn it took in the final 20 or so minutes with the reveal of "The Beast".

But after the post-credits scene and now this upcoming tie-in with "Unbreakable", I feel a little more on board with the movie and also this upcoming sequel. Had I known where the movie was going to end up, I probably would have appreciated the final act as it was happening, instead of rolling my eyes at it.

I didn't know I wanted this, but from now on that's the story behind it in my own mind.

[Bub (BLM)]

A follow-up to Unbreakable has been talked about for so long it almost felt like one of those pipe dream things that clearly will never come to fruition. I'm pretty excited this is going down.

[Glitch]

It seems shamalan will have a better built cinematic universe before DC does.

[Amazing Kitsune]

I am so hyped about this.

[Ryback on a Pole!]

I haven't seen Split but might give it a watch.

I watched The Visit last night after a long period of ignoring M Night's movies and really enjoyed it. I guessed what the twist was going to be but didn't mind that I saw it coming since it was still a good twist and made sense. Plus the Grandma was genuinely creepy as hell.

Since I enjoyed that I'll probabably give Split a watch.

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

Split looked terribly stupid. I guess I'll have to watch it now

[Juice]

Glad this thread didn't spoil split for me and im sad if it does for others.

I want Unbreakable guy to team up with Haley Joel Osment who is brought in because he can see/communicate with dead people, and that is needed.

This movie should be nothing but making all of his movies into one cohesive shared universe. A Shyamalaniverse so to speak.
