Glass is a 2019 American superhero thriller written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, the concluding chapter of the Eastrail 177 Trilogy that connects Unbreakable and Split. Bruce Willis, Samuel L.

Jackson, and James McAvoy reprise their roles as David Dunn, Elijah Price/Mr. Glass, and Kevin Wendell Crumb/The Horde, who are brought together in a psychiatric facility where Dr. Ellie Staple, played by Sarah Paulson, attempts to convince all three that their superhuman abilities are delusions.

As Mr. Glass manipulates events from within the facility, orchestrating a confrontation between David and The Beast — Kevin's most powerful personality — the truth about Staple's organization and its centuries-long mission to suppress superhuman individuals is revealed. James McAvoy's multi-personality performance remained astonishing, shifting between identities with visible physical and vocal transformations.

The film's subversion of superhero climax expectations — deliberately denying the audience the large-scale battle it seemed to be building toward — was the film's most debated creative choice. Glass earned $247 million worldwide on a $20 million budget.
