I always assumed it was gonna be a Harry Potter game. That's a biiiiiiiiiig piece of IP that WB has access to.
From scanning Linkedin, resumes, facebook, google+, and other forums (game design, graphic design, and a forum for something called pyMEL) it looks like the people on this project are either shared with LOTRO, or were pulled from LOTRO.
In addition, the original console program with Turbine got started with a 40 million dollar investment from WB. This was way before WB bought them out.
WB has a lot invested in the LOTR movies and merchandise.
LOTRO is Turbines biggest property.
Given all that, I am guessing this console game is going to be LOTR related. I am putting the odds at 85%.
I would still like to track down what this "Greyfoundy" stuff is.
