Who really was Griselda Blanco? Which the Netflix series doesn’t say
Despite this success, Netflix has no plans to produce a season 2 of Griselda. The series was created from the beginning as a limited edition of 6 episodes covering a part of his life: his arrival in Miami and how he managed to find his place.
