I hear Clarkson was recruited by HBO for GOT after she recently became available. Earlier this year, Clarkson was the first female director to be tapped to direct a Star Trek movie when she was hired to helm the fourth feature in the current series. That project has since been shelved.
Gee, who will step up to direct the next Star Trek film?
My vote goes to Matthew Blackburn. He has made a few Trek shorts already, and the fan in me wonders what he would do with a decent budget and a Tarantino script. Take a look at these shorts and tell me someone who would be better suited to direct a Star Trek movie:

I heard that it's been shelved because Chris Pine wanted more money than they were willing to pay, and they weren't willing to recast the role of Captain Kirk.
