SDCC 2018: Trailer For M. Night's Glass Shows Real-World Superheroes
"This is not a cartoon."
Are superheroes real or just a delusion? That's the question posed in the first trailer for Glass, the follow-up to M. Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable and Split. The film bridges the two movies, bringing their casts together for what looks to be perhaps the most unique superhero--or villain--tale ever seen on the big screen. The cast and Shyamalan brought the clip to San Diego Comic-Con and were careful not to share too much about the movie, which releases in 2019.
"There are a lot of secrets in this movie that have not been exposed," Bruce Willis said. Still, the trailer gave quite a bit away. Based on the clip, which you can see above, Glass is largely set in a psychiatric hospital, where Kenneth Wendell Crumb (James McAvoy), Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson), and David Dunn (Bruce Willis) are all being treated by Dr. Ellie Staple (Sarah Paulson). She's a specialist that deals with people who think they are superheroes.
What she is going to have to come to terms with, though, is that perhaps these three men do have some abilities. "This is not a cartoon," Price says in the trailer. "This is the real world. And yet some of us still don't die with bullets. Some of us can still bend steel. I've been waiting for the world to see that we exist."
Given the seemingly evil nature of Crumb's alter ego the Beast, the world may finally find out what happens when a couple of real-life superheroes are forced to spring into action to stop him.
Glass hits theaters on January 18, 2019.
