'Glass,' Now on Netflix with 'Split,' Rounds Off One of the Best Superhero Trilogies

Everything was going by the books in Split, M. Night Shyamalan’s bonkers but very entertaining movie about a killer with multiple personalities who kidnapped and terrorized a trio of teen girls (including Anya Taylor Joy and Haley Lu Richardson). It was a well-made, over-the-top horror story, featuring a fantastically impressive performance from James McAvoy in the lead role. And then … that end credits scene happened.

Not only did the end of the movie suddenly turn into a supervillain origin story for the McAvoy character, but as the customers of a Philadelphia diner reacted to the news reports of a monster/man with the moniker “Horde,” they start to remember an earlier villain with a catchy name. Luckily, Bruce Willis is there to fill in the blanks for them: “Mr. Glass.” Aaaaaaand suddenly we’re in a surprise Unbreakable sequel!

With the third film in the trilogy, Glass, poised to hit theaters, this would be a really good time to catch up on the earlier films in the Unlikely Philadelphia Superheroes (and Supervillains) trilogy.

IS SPLIT ON NETFLIX?

Nope. Sadly the middle chapter in the great saga of Mister Glass and the M. Night Shyamalan Cinematic Universe isn’t currently streaming on Netflix.

DOI NEED TO HAVE SEEN SPLIT BEFORE I SEE GLASS?

Better question: why would you want to see Glass if you hadn’t already seen Split? So curious! But, yeah, you should probably have seen Split at least once, just to familiarize yourself with all of the different personalities that are wrapped up in one James McAvoyian package called “The Horde.”

CAN I WATCH SPLIT ON HULU?

Nope! Split isn’t offered on Hulu.

IS SPLIT ON PRIME VIDEO?

Yeah, but you’ll have to pay for it. Split isn’t available to stream for free for Prime subscribers, nor is it available to rent. You can only purchase it. Downside: you’ll be out ten bucks. Upside: you can keep Split forever!
