And while The Cumberbeast isn't spilling any secrets, he has been chatting about his character's impact on Kirk, Spock and the rest of the Enterprise crew.
The actor told SFX that former Starfleet employee Harrison is "a one-man weapon of mass destruction", adding that he destabilises Kirk's crew with sneaky cleverness and manipulation.
"As a psychological terrorist, he's someone who can plant an idea that's as vicious as a bomb and explode loyalties and expose relationships and try and turn people against one another to do his bidding," Cumberbatch explained.
"He really disrupts the unity aboard the ship, both physically and mentally. And he's a worthy adversary - there's a lot of shadow play going on with him and Kirk and Spock, Kirk primarily, but both of those characters - he knows how to manipulate them."
SO, not just a pretty face after all, eh?
The latest trailer for the movie, released on Tuesday, sees Chris Pine's Kirk face off against the velvet-voiced villain.
Star Trek Into Darkness will be released on May 9 in the UK, and May 17 in the US.
