X-Men: Apocalypse Final Trailer - 10 Major Plots Hints

2. The Return Of Weapon X

X-Men Apocalypse Jean Grey

The Weapon X programme is back.

How? That's a good question, and one there isn't an answer for at the moment. What we do know, however, is that William Stryker is back, and so too is Alkali Lake, the base of operations for Weapon X and the 'home' of its most famous product.

It's presence in the trailer indicates that Stryker will be involved in the war with Apocalypse in some way, and also that a few of the new mutants will find their way there - probably after the mansion burns down. This tells us that not only does Stryker most likely take the mutants (against their will, of course) but that he'll also be involved in the attack that leads to Havok causing havoc at the school.

Then, in the trailer's sting, we get the final clue as to the presence of Weapon X in this movie.
