What do we see in the Glasses trailer?
The short trailer opens with the mysterious inventor introducing the titular glasses to the test group, claiming they will “change the world.” The group learns that each glass is worth more than $1 billion. As tensions arise, the group finds themselves trapped in a room with a questionnaire on a laptop regarding the mysterious product.
“Glasses is a non-stop thrill ride. I wanted to tell a story that was packed with as many twists as possible to keep the audience guessing until the very end,” said director Wittenber. “But, wrapped within the action are reflections on the transformative effects of technology and how we navigate an unrecognizable world that’s looming on the horizon.”
Wittenber previously directed projects such as Fittest on Earth 2025, Fittest on Earth: A Decade of Fitness, and more. He also served as the film’s sole editor. His next film will be The Last Human.
The upcoming movie stars Joel Kayima, Jenni Beatty, Makha Mthembu, Joshua Smith, Whitney Montgomery, and Jeff Verge. It has a runtime of 85 minutes.
Glasses will be released on September 22, 2026, on Amazon, Apple TV, Google Play, YouTube Movies, and Cable On Demand.
