Glass Trailer Reaction: 6 Ups & 2 Downs

1. Samuel L. Jackson Chews The Scenery

And of course, what would Glass be without the titular antagonist himself? Samuel L. Jackson looks absolutely delightful as Mr. Glass in this trailer, with his giant hair and predilection for ripping through deliciously flowery dialogue.

Given Glass' well-documented desire to see his life play out like a superhero saga, his portentous dialogue actually makes total sense within the context of the movie, and it's safe to say that Jackson gives the material all the acting might it deserves.

After having to wait almost two decades to reprise the role, anything less than a scenery-munching performance from the acting legend just wouldn't suffice.

Surprisingly, the trailer didn't fully reveal Jackson kitted out in his purple supervillain suit, images of which have already been leaked online, though we did catch a brief, silhouetted glimpse of it at the tail-end of the trailer.

Regardless of whether or not Willis ends up bringing his A-game, it's clear that both McAvoy and Jackson are going to knock their roles out of the park.
