After the arrival of the movie ‘Split’ and its ending which made us discover that it was a secret sequel to ‘Unbreakable’, fans around the world went crazy yelling at the top of mountains with excitement that after almost two decades the promise of Shyamalan was fulfilled, who had mentioned that ‘Unbreakable’ was the beginning of something big, and that it was the first movie of a saga.
Had dinner with some of the cast from #Glass last night. Told them I saw the film for the 1st time on Monday. I had a grin from ear to ear.

In “Glass,” Bruce Willis returns and although he is much older since the movie Unbreakable he still packs a punch as the superhuman security guard David Dunn. Samuel L. Jackson reprises as Elijah Price or the evil artist formally known as Mr. Glass. And of course James McAvoy as Kevin Wendell Crumb who is the Split personality villain who kidnaps young girls.
The trailer reveals some major plot points from the movie if placed in a sequential order. This is the order we deduced from the Trailer.
First off Kevin Wendell is back to his old ways, kidnapping young girls that will later be used as a way to feed the Beast’s blood lust.
This is probably going to be what causes David Dunn to try and find him as fast a possible. If you have watched the “Split” movie then you know these girls are in for some psychological and physical trauma.
David (Bruce Willis) sets out to look for him using his Sensory Power, by touching someone, he is able to see a snippet of what the that person has done wrong. David eventually runs into Kevin (McAvoy) and sees where the girls are being held.
This leads to, what we believe, is the first battle between the Beast and David as he tries to rescue the girls.
Some how this leads to their capture, possibly because The Beast is only a temporary form of Kevin. David perhaps lands in water which is his weakness and needs to recover his strength.
They are then placed in a special facility where they have been holding Elijah Price who is now known as Mr. Glass.
Sarah Paulson is brought in to join the “Unbreakable” franchise as Dr. Ellie Staple. Her major role is that of a psychologist who evaluates crazies who believe they are more than human, in essence superheroes. “The three of you have convinced yourselves you have extraordinary gifts like something out of a comic book,” she says with an intrigued tone.
She evaluates Kevin in one of the scenes and says, “I have no question there are two dozen identities that live in that body with you, What I am questioning is your belief that you are something more than human.” Kevin’s most known identities include Patricia , Dennis, Hedwig, Barry, Jade, Orwell, Heinrich, and Norma and The Beast.
Mr. Glass, being the main character for which the name of the movie is based upon, has one major goal. “This is not a cartoon,” he says to Dr. Ellie Staple “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.” Mr. Glass has a terrible weakness. He suffers from osteogenesis imperfecta, which makes his bones extremely fragile and breakable.
However, Elija is extremely intelligent. That’s what makes him dangerous.
It seems as if Elija had a glimpse of The Beast in a comic he finds before he actually meets him.
Mr. Glass decides to meet the Beast by asking Kevin to arrange the meeting.
It appears as though The Beast breaks him out of the facility which means that an agreement has been made to carry out Elija’s plan.
It is important to note that David’s son Joseph Dunn played by Spencer Treat Clark is possibly going to be a surprising part of the plot. We can only hope that he also has superhuman powers of some kind.
Actress Anya Taylor-Joy from “Split” returns as Casey Cook as well. You can see her visiting Kevin at the syckward. Either she is trying to help him or is trying to find out information about the kidnaped girls. This throws our timeline off and the final battle takes place at building where the girls are being held.
Elija’s mom who was the first person to introduce him to Comics is still alive and well. All three, Joseph, Casey, Elija’s Mom are seen here worried, because this the part of the movie where the David, The Beast and Mr. Glass escape the facility.
Finally, there is a big battle which includes Dr. Ellie Staple rescuing David from the water.
Maybe she realized that people with superpowers do exist and Elija is about to drop the mic.
We might not have the timeline down correctly but we’re sure we got some events in the right order. We really hope David’s son becomes an amazing superhero who helps his father overcome The Beast and whatever Mr. Glass is planning with his tech. Can’t wait to see the plot twist Shyamalan always throws at us at the end!
