Sofia Vergara Sued Over Upcoming Netflix Series

Sofia Vergara in Griselda.

Sofia Vergara is best known for playing the brilliantly funny Gloria on Modern Family, and similarly, anyone who’s ever seen her as a judge on America’s Got Talent can attest to her skills of injecting humor into any situation. However, there seems to be nothing funny about the drama surrounding her latest project Griselda — a dramatized look at Griselda Blanco’s life as a drug queen-pin in Miami — as she and Netflix have been sued by Blanco’s estate.

Griselda Blanco’s adult children have filed a lawsuit as representatives of their late mother's estate, seeking an injunction to stop the Netflix limited series from hitting the 2024 TV schedule as planned on January 25, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. Sofia Vergara serves as an executive producer on the project, as well as its star, which is likely why she’s named in the suit.
