Detail about one of the most powerful supervillains in the MCU appearing opposite Logan (Wolverine) is included on the audio commentary featuring Simon Kinberg and director Bryan Singer. It is attached to the digital HD release of X-Men: Apocalypse.

The helmer seems to confirm the speculation as the post-credit scene, which features a representative of the Essex Corporation obtaining a vial of Wolverine’s blood from the ruined Alkali Lake facility, is said to be a direct connection to The Wolverine 3.
