It was pretty goofy to have a Spanish guy playing an Indian dude in the old universe.

I know plenty of people who can't tell a lot of Hispanics and Indians apart.
If it IS Bridge Officer Harrisson, and not Khan himself... and IF there is a flashback that shows his interaction with Khan as a brief cameo, I hope he is secretly being played by Naveen Andrews.

Fun fact: khan was one of only 3 non crew members to receive a star fleet uniform in TOS.
It will never be as bad as Nemesis.

Alice Eve. M'lady.
Denher. Everyone thought Alice Eve would be either Denher or Marcus. People leaned Denher because her hair was more similar to that. If it was Denher, it was basically a guarantee of Gary Mitchell as the villain since it was Denher that lead to his death in TOS and she also ended up with the powers he did, just weaker.
Sure, but there's also this Harrison nonsense.
That's the one. But they're both relationships he had early in his career.
is definitely more recognizable, though.
I don't see why this factors in at all. Harrison was in a bunch of episodes and was an Enterprise crew member.

Fuck mitchell and khan. They should make a mirror universe movie.
Other than Space Seed? According to imdb, Ron Veto is only credited as Harrison in that one episode. Every other time he's listed as just a generic title, like "security officer".
Herc from Ain't it cool news is thinking the same thing:

It's not khan it's one of the other supermen from Botany Bay
It's also not really that clear the person who's named Harrison in Space Seed is Ron Veto. A Harrison was also mentioned in another episode in which he appeared (Naked Time), but not in a way that's directly connected. Really any attempt to build an actual character out of Harrison requires you to make arbitrary decisions about who he was and how many episodes he was in.
It doesn't make any sense anyways. The picture in question
shows Cumberbatch in the brig and is labelled as if Cumberbatch is John Harrison. How does that support Cumberbatch playing Khan? Or Khan being in the film at all?
Herc's speculation is just weird. I don't think that makes any sense as a plot.
Unless his assumed name is John Harrisson throughout the "manhunt" act of the movie... then they capture him "HAHA, my true identity is KHAN NOONIEN SINGH".
This is exactly what I'm afraid of.
There is one way that this could go that I would think is amazing.
Peter Weller is Khan
Haha, I'm watching it too.
What don't you see? About the casting if it is him, or about it being him at all?

Not really, since it's a young Carol Marcus.
I already have an excellent Khan movie sitting on my shelf.
I mean "I don't see" in the sense of "I don't understand"
Point taken, but now you're just going to have two excellent Khan movies on your shelf

Saw a new trailer at BNAT. Looks quite a bit better. Should be out in a few days.

Yes, but what part of the complaint don't you understand? People have described a few different complaints if it is Khan.
Edit: I believe Docs point is that he doesn't want a third Khan movie, but something new.
Well when I opened the thread I got greeted by posts like this:
So I was a little confused. Maybe I should have read through some of the older pages before posting

Surely the end of the trailer that Japan got all but confirms it's a remake of The Wrath of Khan, no?
Sculli, Alice Eve just emailed me.
She asked me to tell you to stop PM'ing her asking her to come over and play with your 'Na'vi tail'.
Not cool mang.
Not cool.
I wanted it to be Gary Mitchell, or anyone else but Khan. Khan has been done and done well. Star Trek has a wide range of stories to mine.
That confirms nothing. JJ is obviously screwing with us, so that could be a red herring. Even if it is Khan, I doubt that scene is in the same context as in Star Trek 2.
This. I bet
Khan is already dead, and Cumberbach is exacting his revenge--- er, vengeance on the Federation for some reason related to the botany bay... Perhaps Nero told the klingons about Khan while he was captured and they went to get the ship and imprisoned them all

Hmmm, wild speculation but maybe Nero looked into other genocidal weapons before the red beach ball? Like the Genesis device?
He's playing a new character not in the canon before according to the writers.

Before he died Nero transferred his consciousness into a star-fleet officer. That's why the crew looks so shocked/horrified in the trailer because he's back and now aboard the enterprise.
NeoNero: The Neropocalypse!
Works for me, would be pretty cool actually to have it based
around others augments that followed Kahn, Cumberbatch being Joachim?, while he sits around somewhere pulling the strings, or even as we have seen Klingons was found by then and didn't survive?
Who knows, I looked at the IMDB, I had no idea we didn't know who so many actors were playing in the film, which had lead us to all this speculation, it is actually quite nice to have such a big film that didn't announce everything a year beforehand.
