Hidden Figures highlighted the role that black female scientists played in the early NASA missions, and it was so much of a commercial success that National Geographic is going to turn it into a TV show.

The film was nominated for three Oscars, including Best Picture, and was based on a book of the same name, which was written by Margot Lee Shetterley.

This will be Nat Geo’s second scripted series and their first, Genius, starred Geoffrey Rush as Albert Einstein in season one, while season two is set to feature Antonio Banderas as Pablo Picasso.

If Hidden Figures ends up on the small screen, it will follow the trend of highlighting the contributions of figures who made notable contributions to the world but whose hard-work did not get the recognition it deserved.

Other such fairly recent products include The Imitation Game and The Theory of Everything.

The series, which was last seen in 2015 with Carmen Sandiego Returns, puts players working for the ACME Detective Agency, and they are required to locate the elusive criminal mastermind Carmen Sandiego.

Players are required to track her across the world and may even have to travel across space and time.

According to a report by Deadline, the Carmen Sandiego movie is still in its early stages and no director or writer has been attached to the project.

The animation series will explore the origin of Carmen. In addition to exploring how she is a big-name criminal in the world today, it will also explore how exactly she became a criminal in the first place.

Carmen is set to be voiced by Gina Rodriguez who is also set to voice the character in an animated series, which is set to debut in 2019.
