Sofia Vergara sheds her rom-com persona to take on the role of a girl boss in Netflix’s new mini-series, ‘Griselda’.
The 51-year-old actress transforms into Griselda ‘La Jefa’ Blanco, a Colombian drug lord from the 1970s who created one of the most profitable cartels in history.
The six-part drama is from the team behind ‘Narcos’.
From sniffing cocaine to chain-smoking cigarettes and beating a guy with a baseball bat, she went all in on ‘Grisela’.
All of her hard work proved to be worth it as drama debuted impressively on Rotten Tomatoes.
Going by the first reviews, the series looks to be a winner, earning 86%.
Praise went towards Vergara’s performance.
“While “Griselda” compresses the three years of La Jefa’s time in South Florida into just six hour-long chapters, not a moment or line of dialogue is wasted… Fast-paced and well-acted, the show is brutal, fascinating and full of high drama,” Variety says.
