Director M. Night Shyamalan has released a new trailer for his forthcoming film Glass, a followup to 2000's Unbreakable and 2017's Split.

Glass follows Samuel L. Jackson's Mr. Glass and Bruce Willis' invincible David Dunn from Unbreakable on the trail of James McAvoy's Kevin Wendell Crumb from Split. Also known as the Horde, McAvoy's character suffers from multiple personality disorder and is the story's super-villain.

The trio is being examined by Sarah Paulson's Ellie Staple, a psychiatrist who focuses on patients with the delusion that they have superpowers. As Mr. Glass says in the trailer, "a lot of people are going to die" as a result of the characters' interactions.

Shyamalan filmed Glass in the Philadelphia area late last year, wrapping up in February. Jackson, Willis, Paulson, and others were in Philadelphia for the shoot.

Glass is scheduled to be released Jan. 18.
