'Glass': M. Night Shyamalan's career could experience a new spring with this movie; here's why?

The director gave us some extremely thought-provoking stories, but at this point in his career he might stumble or rise higher.
PUBLISHED DEC 23, 2018

Director M. Night Shyamalan who was once hailed as the "the next Spielberg" by Newsweek is coming up with the final installment in the 'Unbreakable' trilogy, 'Glass'. Starring Samuel L. Jackson, Bruce Willis, and James McAvoy, 'Glass' will see Shyamalan's three most intriguing characters come together for the last time. The movie will follow the aftermath of David Dunn (played by Willis) tracking down Kevin Wendell Crumb/the Horde (played by McAvoy) as they find themselves imprisoned in a psychiatric facility along with Elijah “Mr. Glass” Price (played by Jackson). 

'Glass' is not only generating buzz due to its place as the final chapter in Shyamalan's epic world of human-superheroes, but because it can be the director's golden chance to regain his stature as one of the last proficient storytellers of the previous century. Shyamalan became the hot-topic for movie watchers when his breakthrough smash hit 'The Sixth Sense' released in 1999. The outré tale about a disheartened child psychologist treating a young boy who acts as a medium of communication between the former and a slew of unhappy spirits presented Shyamalan as a filmmaker with his own genre.
