HBO decision on GoT by March

There haven't been any big news regarding Lena Headey in the past few days, but about the pilot she's working for, we learned through Martin himself, the author of the books the pilot is based on, that HBO will make a decision on whether or not to produce an whole series out of it in March at the latest. Though some reports say it's unlikely that they'll decide before that. He reported that during the books signings in Belfast a couple of days ago (you can see a video here). There are also rumours that there might be a 2 seasons order from HBO right away if the pilot gets greenlit, though this news has to be taken with a pinch of salt, since these days, as we learned from TSCC, "no show is ever safe", so better take one step at a time and hope for a first season. I haven't read the books so I don't know if Lena's character, Cersei Lannister, will be in every season, but I also prefer not to investigate that yet, as it would be too spoilerish;-P
Also from the Winter is Coming blog we learn that shooting in Northern Ireland will go on til lapproximately the 11th of November, so just a couple of days more and then the production moves to Morocco. So far locations for shooting have included Doune Castle in Scotland, the Tollymore Forest Park, Cairncastle, Castle Ward and the Paint Hall (Belfast, for some of the interior scenes) in Northern Ireland, check this page for pics.
On a side note, maybe you've also noticed that Lena's IMDB profile has been updated with a picture, finally! The site does look different so maybe it's because of that or maybe because of a possible further boost of popularity thanks to the buzz around Game of Thrones... ?!
