Jennifer Lopez is set to play notorious drug lord Griselda Blanco.
HBO is developing the film which focuses on the rise and fall of Blanco, the drug lord known as “The Cocaine Godmother” who 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 exec produce with Nuyorican’s Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, Benny Medina, and LBI Entertainment’s Julie Yorn and Rick Yorn. Co-exec producers are Alex Pettyfer, Nuyorican’s Priscilla Porianda and LBI’s Patrick Walmsley.
