And who's to say that without that fan backlash they wouldn't have gone with a BAME actress? 

My thoughts exactly.  Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they purposely leaked the info, just to "test the waters".

My guess is it was either that or someone involved with the production, who didn't like the way they were heading, leaked it.
