"Hidden Figures", a 2016 film starring Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monae will reportedly be adapted into a television series by National Geographic.
The project is said to be in the early stages of development, reports hollywoodreporter.com.
The movie was based on a similarly titled book by Margot Lee Shetterly that told the real-life story of the black women mathematicians who were key players in the early days of the American space program.
