Griselda Blanco was a notorious drug queen-pin in Miami in the 1970s who is believed to have made billions of dollars importing and distributing cocaine and allegedly murdering hundreds of people before being gunned down herself at the age of 69. "America’s Got Talent" judge Sofia Vergara is the so-called “Cocaine Godmother” in the crime series "Griselda,"

This role is a far cry from "Modern Family’s" Gloria Delgado-Pritchett — the role Sofia Vergara is best known for — however, critics who were able to screen the six-episode miniseries ahead of its release seem to be impressed with the actress’ transformation.
