I'm a bit confused about what it's for. Are they intending on expanding anything from the original series? If not, what does it offer over the original?

To be clear here I'm not saying it's bad. I have no idea. I haven't watched it and don't care all that much for the original either (which, to clarify again, does not mean I think the original is bad, it was just never special to me personally). I just don't understand the intention.

The cynic in me says money.

More specifically though, there's this sense of media hierarchy where some mediums are considered superior/more digestible/mainstream than others. Think back to the 2000s, everyone wanted that live action cowboy bebop remake with Keanu reeves, same kind of thing.

I couldn't tell you why this exists, very often the original media was good because of the medium it was presented in. I'd argue avatar is one of those cases, but that's me.
