SPOILERS ahead for X-Men: Apocalypse.

It seems that, like X-Men: Days of Future Past before it, X-Men: Apocalypse will feature a post-credits coda that teases a major villain for an upcoming X-Men film.

It isn't clear whether the scene teases the villain of the as-yet-untitled sequel to The Wolverine -- a real possibility, since it involves the Weapon X project -- or something a little further off, like Gambit or the next X-Men team movie.

What it does, is establish that there's someone from the "Essex Corporation" who has a vial of Wolverine's blood. Who's that?

Well, it likely has ties to Nathaniel Essex, the villain known as Mister Sinister. There's also speculation over at Screen Crush that the scene could imply somebody is looking to create a Wolverine of their own -- something that could lead to the creation of X-23.

You can get the full details at the link above. Note that their version gives more in the way of concrete details and is essentially a fairly full recap of the 90-second scene, so another layer of spoilers there.

X-Men: Apocalypse is the ninth film in the X-Men franchise, and the fourth to be directed by Bryan Singer. The film features a screenplay by Simon Kinberg, and stars James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar Isaac, Nicholas Hoult, Rose Byrne, Olivia Munn, Evan Peters, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Alexandra Shipp, Lucas Till, Josh Helman, Lana Condor and Ben Hardy.
