Now, the renowned actress is stepping into a whole new world. According to Independent, Stewart, who has never appeared in a TV series before, will portray astronaut Sally Ride in the mini-series "The Challenger."
If you're wondering who Sally Ride is, let us enlighten you. She was the first American woman to go to space aboard the Challenger spacecraft in 1983, at the young age of 32.
As per Deadline's report, "The Challenger" is based on the 2022 book "New Names: The Historic Astronaut Class That Overcame Barriers and Changed the Face of Space Exploration" by Meredith Bagby. The series will not only tell Ride's story but also bring to life the narrative of NASA's astronaut class of 1978 on screen.
