Reportedly Benicio Del Toro dropped out and Cumberbatch was a last minute replacement.

Having Cumberbatch play Khan was by far one of the most egregious examples of Hollywood white washing a character. I don’t care what weird explanation they gave in some comic, to everyone watching the movie, we saw the whitest man on earth, play a guy named Khan Noonien Singh

@Son_of_dad @StillPaisleyCat To be fair, Ricardo Montalbán also didn't have the appropriate ethnic ancestry either...
