Explore the dramatic world of Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco in Netflix's latest series featuring Sofia Vergara. Check out the review here!
Netflix's 'Griselda' showcases Sofia Vergara in a career-best performance as she portrays the infamous Colombian cartel leader, Griselda Blanco.

The series dives into Blanco's ruthless reign in the drug world, drawing parallels to other infamous figures like Pablo Escobar. Through Vergara's transformation into Griselda Blanco, the series explores the disturbing realities of the drug trade, blurring the lines between fact and fiction. Despite some creative liberties, the show sheds light on the dark and intense world of cartel leaders like Blanco, offering a compelling narrative of power, crime, and downfall.
Interesting Facts: 1. Sofia Vergara's immersive makeup transformation for the role involved prosthetics to authentically portray Griselda Blanco's appearance. 2.
