Sarah Paulson, Bruce Willis and James McAvoy are seen in teaser for M Night Shyamalan's horror film Glass

Director M Night Shyamalan has debuted the very first teaser for his Glass trailer.

This is a first look at the new horror drama which stars Sarah Paulson, James McAvoy and Bruce Willis.

Released on Friday and just 15 seconds long, it manages to be chilling while revealing only the barest glimpse of the action.

In the follow up to 2000’s Unbreakable and 2016’s Split, 39-year-old McAvoy's voice is heard as the killer Kevin Crumb. 

He introduces some of his split personalities including Patricia and Barry Reynolds.

And Crumb warns in a sing-song voice: 'The Beast is coming any minute now for you guys' as his face slowly emerges through broken glass.

The Beast is, of course, another of Crumb's alter egos.
