Meanwhile, a post from Rolling Stone provides plot details of the biopic with reports that it will focus on Neil Armstrong's endeavors during the period of 1961-1969. Before being the most prominent member of the Apollo 11 crew, Neil Armstrong first served as a navy pilot during the Second World War era.
When the war is over, Armstrong then became a member of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics. The storytelling will be explored on a factual first-person style and will attempt to show a closer look in one of the most memorable space missions of all time, the Apollo 11.
Apparently, although the film will mostly revolve around Neil Armstrong, the biopic will also focus on the struggles and challenges that the nation has to face in order to successfully land a man on the moon.
