Sofia Vergara is perhaps most recognisable as Modern Family's Gloria Delgado-Pritchett - a role that saw her become one of America's highest-paid actresses. Now, she's back as fearsome cartel leader Griselda Blanco for a six-part Netflix series of the same name.

Modern Family ’s Sofia Vergara is a household name after playing fiery Gloria Delgado-Pritchett on the US sitcom – however, the Colombian actress is heading into new territory for Netflix’s latest crime drama, Griselda. Based on the story of real-life Colombian drug trafficker Griselda Blanco, the six-parter stars Sofia as the “godmother of cocaine” as she flees her home country with her sons to begin a cartel operation in 1970s Miami, Florida. While Sofia admits she’d never heard of Griselda Blanco – who was assassinated in 2012 aged 69 – before moving to the States in the late 90s, the queenpin’s story hit close to home.

Sofía Vergara was — jokingly — offended by Kelly Clarkson saying her jaw-dropping physical transformation in the new Netflix series “Griselda” looked natural.
