Unbreakable (film) [SEP] Production
When M. Night Shyamalan conceived the idea for "Unbreakable", the outline had a comic book's traditional three-part structure (the superhero's "birth", his struggles against general evil-doers, and the hero's ultimate battle against the "archenemy"). Finding the birth section most interesting, he decided to write "Unbreakable" as an origin story. During the filming of "The Sixth Sense", Shyamalan had already approached Bruce Willis for the lead role of David Dunn. With Willis and Samuel L. Jackson specifically in mind for the two leading characters, Shyamalan began to write "Unbreakable" as a spec script during post-production on "The Sixth Sense". Jackson recalled meeting Willis in a casino in Casablanca while he was on vacation prior to "Unbreakable"s production; Willis told Jackson that he had just finished filming for Shyamalan's "The Sixth Sense" and told Jackson about the new script that was written for both of them.
