Geekery: New Look at ‘Glass’ Reveals a Deeper Plot
Let’s be honest, it’s hard to get excited about a M. Night Shymalan movie given the amount of duds he’s released. That said, Glass has three great actors carrying some of the more interesting characters the director has created. It brings back characters from Unbreakable and Split in the director’s take on a comic book movie – that’s two decades in the making.
This latest international trailer has footage we’ve seen before, but it gives some new hints as to the plot. What is Kevin Wendell Crumb (James McAvoy) up to? Looks like there’s some recruiting of the faithful going on.
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.
Let’s hope the story doesn’t shatter in the middle.
Glass arrives in theaters on January 18.
