I still wish they had Eccleston.


But yeah, from what I've been reading, and pieced together from the finale...

SPOILER: show

Hurt will be the "lost Doctor", aka, the one who actually made the decision / pulled the trigger on the ending of the Time War that wiped out Gallifrey. Basically the regeneration that the Doctor has pretty much disowned and force himself to forget about, in an attempt to distance himself from his own acts.
