This article contains spoilers for Griselda season 1.
Netflix’s latest crime drama miniseries, Griselda, from the minds behind Narcos, had an immense and wild real-life story to pull from. Just like her infamous contemporary and compatriot Pablo Escobar, Griselda Blanco (aka The Godmother and The Queen of Cocaine), played by an unrecognizable Sofia Vergara, led a notorious life driven by drugs, violence, greed, and murder. And while the show does a pretty comprehensive job of condensing the most thrilling, dramatic aspects and events of her life into six hours, it’s a nearly impossible task to include everything about her.

- I generally hate sequels, but Magnolia Pictures' Magnet has announced a follow up to a Billy Corben's very popular documentary about the drug trade in Miami. Magnet Releasing have picked up Cocaine Cowboys II: Hustlin' with the Godmother and will theatrically release the picture sometime this year. For a refresher's course on part I see the trailer below.
