Yahoo Finance Sofia Vergara Looks Unrecognisable In Transformation For Latest Netflix Role
Netflix has released the first look images of their upcoming series about Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco, known as the 'Cocaine Godmother', who will be played by Sofia Vergara, and the Modern Family star looks completely unrecognisable after her transformation for the role.
The image is our first look at the upcoming series, titled Griselda, which is a dramatisation of the true story of the infamous Columbian drug lord, who headed up the Miami cocaine trade for the Medellin cartel during the 1980s and up until the early 2000s.
The series, which was first announced in November, stars Vergara as the ruthless Blanco, along with two Narcos: Mexico stars Alberto Ammann and José Zúñiga.
Of the series, the official Netflix synopsis states: 'A devoted mother, Blanco's lethal blend of charm and unsuspected savagery helped her expertly navigate between family and business leading her to become widely known as the "Godmother."'
In a recent tweet the streamer shared our first look at Vergara's transformation for the role and we guarantee you'll have never seen her like this before.

From the guys that brought us Narcos, this should be good. Narcos: the black widow

We can't wait to see Vergara tackle something with a bit of edge, and especially from the team behind Narcos, who clearly know exactly what they're doing.
