Jennifer Lopez to Play Drug Lord Griselda Blanco in a Film for HBO
HBO is developing a film focused on the rise and fall of Griselda Blanco, the notorious drug lord known as 'The Cocaine Godmother.' Jennifer Lopez is attached to star.
Blanco revolutionized the U.S. drug trade during the 1970s and 1980s and became the most powerful female cartel member of all time. Lopez will also executive produce with her Nuyorican Productions banner producing.
“I’ve been fascinated by the life of this corrupt and complicated woman for many years,” Lopez commented. “The idea of teaming with HBO felt like the perfect fit for finally bringing Griselda’s story to life.”
