Griselda Plot and Cast
After working on Narcos: Mexico, Netflix has decided to explore the story with one more cartel queen Griselda Blanco. This time Netflix is coming with a different treatment, ornamenting ‘Griselda’ with an entire six-episode series based on her life.
Griselda is a limited series inspired by the savvy and ambitious Colombian businesswoman Griselda Blanco, who created one of the most profitable cartels in history.
Griselda Blanco grows up in poverty in Colombia and commits her first murder after being forced into childhood prostitution. She eventually came to live in the US with her first husband and three sons. She earns money by creating fake passports for cocaine smugglers and moves into the smuggling trade herself.
The official synopsis adds: “A devoted mother, Blanco’s lethal blend of charm and unsuspected savagery helped her expertly navigate between family and business, leading her to be widely known as the ‘Godmother.'”
A biopic on Griselda Blanco’s lifetime, named ‘Cocaine Godmother’ premiered in 2018. The film stars Catherine Zeta-Jones as Griselda Blanco, the Cocaine Godmother.
The cast of the upcoming series includes Alberto Guerra, Alberto Ammann, Christian Tappan, Diego Trujillo, Paulina Davila, Gabriel Sloyer, Martin Rodriguez, José Zúñiga, Maximiliano Hernández and Julieth Restrepo.
