Maybe this shouldn’t be a surprise anymore, but Netflix may have another hit on its hands with Griselda — an upcoming miniseries about Colombian drug kingpin Griselda Blanco. At least, that was my first thought after watching the trailer this morning.
But what was a surprise was the performance of Sofia Vergara, who is starring as Blanco in Griselda. I’ll be honest, I was hesitant to watch the trailer in the first place because I felt that Vergara’s casting for such a serious role could be like a needle scratching across a record. But I couldn’t have been more wrong — she comes off as absolutely perfect for the part in the two-and-a-half minutes of Netflix’s latest trailer.
