The teaser showed the three main characters receiving psychiatric treatment because they believed they were superheroes.

Willis is a security guard with special abilities, McAvoy has multiple personalities, while Jackson is Mr Glass, real name Elijah Price, a comic book fan with a dark secret.

Shyamalan told the audience to expect “world class performances” from the actors.

Earlier, during a question and answer session with fans, Jackson was asked what he liked about his character.

He told the audience his favourite aspect was that he was “quiet”, adding: “I don’t play the same motherf***** all the time!”

Glass will be released in January.
