Sofía Vergara to Portray Notorious Cartel Leader in Netflix Series ‘Griselda’

Sofía Vergara, known for her role as Gloria Pritchett in the ABC sitcom ‘Modern Family,’ is set to make a striking comeback in a completely different role. The 51-year-old actress will be portraying the notorious cartel leader, Griselda Blanco, in the upcoming Netflix series ‘Griselda.’

The series, scheduled for release later this month, delves into the life of Griselda Blanco, a Colombian woman who rose to infamy in the 1970s and 1980s by dominating the drug trade in both Colombia and the United States. Blanco, also known as the Black Widow, was a trailblazer in bringing cocaine to the American market and was rumored to have orchestrated the deaths of numerous individuals.

In preparation for her role, Vergara was determined to shed her previous on-screen persona and fully immerse herself in the character of Griselda. She expressed her fascination with Blanco’s transformation into a ruthless and formidable figure, surpassing the stereotypical traits associated with male drug lords.

Vergara’s dedication to the role extended to physical transformation, as she underwent significant changes to embody Griselda. Utilizing prosthetics, she altered her appearance, including her nose, teeth, and eyebrows, to effectively vanish into the character. Her commitment to portraying the complex and compelling nature of Griselda is evident in the meticulous attention to detail in her portrayal.

The development of ‘Griselda’ commenced in 2012, when Vergara collaborated with director Andrés Baiz and the creative team to bring this gripping narrative to life.

As fans eagerly anticipate the release of ‘Griselda,’ the series promises to offer a captivating portrayal of a woman who defied norms and carved her place in the male-dominated world of drug trafficking. Vergara’s transformation into Griselda Blanco is poised to captivate audiences and showcase her versatility as an actress in this compelling and intense portrayal.
