Sofía Vergara is heading up one of the most profitable cartels in history in Netflix‘s upcoming drama series, Griselda, which is set to premiere on Thursday, January 25, 2024.
In anticipation, the streamer has released a short teaser (watch below), giving viewers their first real glimpse at the America’s Got Talent judge as Griselda Blanco, the savvy and ambitious Colombian drug queenpin.
“You’ve thought about me a lot, haven’t you? I heard that you liked my product. We can make a lot of money together,” Griselda says in the clip as she addresses a room full of men.
When one of the men asks, “Who is the one in charge?” Griselda simply stares at him menacingly, letting him know who the leader is without uttering a word.
Created by Eric Newman, Doug Miro, Ingrid Escajeda, and Carlo Bernard (the team behind Narcos and Narcos: Mexico), the upcoming series tells the story of Griselda Blanco, who in 1970s and 80s Miami, created one of the most profitable cartels in history.
