X-Men: Apocalypse Official Trailer Breakdown - 36 Things You Need To See

32. En Sabah Nur Becomes Apocalypse

OK, so what are we seeing in this flashback? It's his origins, but as a mutant it's not like he can be just given powers (that would be a major departure from the comics). Instead, it looks like some form of sacrifice - there's two bodies on slabs here; I'd guess the Apocalypse consciousness is being transferred into an immortal vessel.
With a swirl of purple CGI, Oscar goes from En Sabah Nur to Apocalypse, possibly to wait until he can be, as Moira says, "reborn".
