Splitcentered on a man (McAvoy) with 24 distinct personalities, the last of which ("the Beast") is the most dangerous. Taylor-Joy played one of the victims kidnapped by Kevin to be a sacrifice to the Beast.

The film featured a surprise cameo by Willis as David Dunn, who was revealed in Unbreakableto have superhuman abilities. That same scene also included a reference to Dunn's nemesis Mr. Glass.

There's no word yet on when shooting on Glasswill begin. Considering that Shyamalan's script is already complete, though, we'd guess it'll get rolling sooner rather than later.
