The plan is to expand the story of Tom Wolfe's original book with additional seasons that tell the story of Project Gemini and Project Apollo (subjects the book and 1983 film didn't touch on).
As a reminder - HBO's From the Earth to the Moon covered Gemini and Apollo brilliantly. Just as SPR led to Band of Brothers, even earlier, Apollo 13 lead to FTETTM - with some personnel participating in all 4 (notably, Tom Hanks, who was heavily involved in all of these).

That was an awesome series

I will say that From the Earth to the Moon covered Apollo well. It did touch on Freedom 7 as well as the Gemini IV and Gemini VIII missions, but beyond that it didn't really go into a lot of the drama surrounding the earlier space missions before Apollo.
