X-Men: Apocalypse Official Trailer Breakdown - 36 Things You Need To See
23. The Other Apocalypse
Get ready for the customary shots of random humans looking on in horror while they wait for the X-Men to save them; destroying Cairo is just going to be the first step of Apocalypse's plan - he needs to rid the world of all humanity. And what better way to do it than with nuclear weapons? This movie is set in 1983, after all, and the First Class trilogy has been very concerned with the threat of the Cold War. This is some Judgement Day-level threat here, meaning we really are facing Doomsday (spoilers for Batman V Superman, possibly); Professor X even claims there'll be "billions of people killed".
