I am seeing the exact same behavior with an nvidia 590gtx.
I have noticed that sometimes I am able to skip one of the videos before it hangs, but that is about it. I've tried all the usual suspects: removing the directory that it creates in Documents\My Games\PP3, removing the game entirely and re-downloading, removing any references I could find in the registry, etc.
It did actually start twice for me: once right after install yesterday morning and then again this morning after several attempts it started once. Unfortunately it then stalled with a "Checking Serial Key" message when I went to start a multiplayer game.
Disabling the intro movies by deleting the .bik or editing Documents\My Games\PP3\PP3WorkGame\Config\PP3WorkEngine.ini and set bForceNoMovies=TRUE and the game then seems to load the menu screen and hang.
