Tonight on TV: Shyamalan’s die-hard fans have been waiting for the film for more than 15 years

In 2000, while promoting Unbreakable, M. Night Shyamalan confided in his intention for it to be the first part of a trilogy. But the rather disappointing results ($248 million at the international box office for a $75 million budget) of Bruce Willis and Samuel L. A feature film directed by Jackson is appropriate for this project.

Fifteen years later, the filmmaker began writing Split. He was inspired by Billy Milligan, an American who was jailed for rape in the late 1970s and found not responsible for his crimes due to his dissociative identity disorder, to create the character of Kevin, a young man with multiple personalities, one of which drives him to kidnap. Three young girls.

An oppressive thriller helmed by the impressive James McAvoy, whose final scene, added at the last moment by M. Night Shyamalan, establishes the connection… indestructible ! The director was thus able to realize his original idea and thanks to commercial success division (It grossed more than $278 million worldwide against a $9 million budget), bringing Glass full circle in 2019.
