Your support makes all the difference.M. Night Shyamalan has announced he is making a sequel to his film Unbreakable.
The writer-director confirmed the news via his social media account on Wednesday (26 April) revealing the project he's been working on titled Glass is a follow-up to his 2000 drama.
Both Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson will both reprise their roles with the film scheduled to be released 18 January 2019.
Glass won't merely be an Unbreakable sequel. It will continue the story of Split, the James McAvoy horror thriller which was revealed to share a universe with The film in a brief post-credits scene featuring Willis as character David Dunn.
McAvoy and Anya Taylor-Joy will both return for Glass.
Having released a string of duds (The Lady in the Water/The Last Airbender), the filmmaker - who hit the big time with 1999 horror drama The Sixth Sense - has enjoyed recent box office success with both Split and previous film The Visit.
Shyamalan wrote on Twitter: “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.”
