Recently, NASA chose SpaceX to build a Human Landing System (HLS) version of the Starship that SpaceX has been testing in Texas. There aren't a lot of details yet on how missions to the moon would work using HLS Starship.
Here's a 37-minute video from the Apogee YouTube channel that looks at some of the options. It's pretty interesting. The option of using (and reusing) two HLS Starships to cycle people and cargo back and forth to the moon is really exciting, but it doesn't use NASA's Space Launch System, which may be a deal breaker for them.
