As most of you probably know Apocalypse was born 5000 years ago in Ancient Egypt. I was going to have that be true with the CMCU version too, and the movie would show that with a flashback. A baby being abandoned by its parents in the middle of the desert, but being picked up by men who serve the Pharaoh Rama-Tut who demanded they bring him En Sabah Nur or The First one.

The implication being one of Kang's time remnants raised Apocalypse during his youth and gave him his name, knowing his hindsight he's the first Mutant in recorded history. Future and all.

Other than that there would be no other references to him and he plays no part in the story other than that small easter egg in the flashback.
