Sofa Vergara is still reeling from the first murder shes ever acted out on screen.

The Griselda star sat down with Netflix on Thursday to commentate the scene for their Shot by Shot series. Vergara, who portrays late Colombian cartel leader Griselda Blanco in the show, said acting out a particularly violent scene in episode six felt almost too real.

This is one of the scenes that was a little bit more nerve-wracking for me to film because I had never killed someone in a scene, or in real life, she told Netflix . I think my face here, it was not acting. I was actually horrified about the scene that was coming that I had to film.

Vergaras comedic chops have never been in question, as her performance in Modern Family proves . But her role in Griselda shows her in a new light: fans on social media are calling for her to receive all the awards as a dramatic actor.

The murder scene shows Blanco one of the biggest cocaine dealers in history paying her competitors a visit after they decapitated several of her employees. Blanco returns the favor by taking a machete to a man whos tied up and pleading for his life.

This scene is one of the points in the series that really, really transformed her more into this ruthless monster, Vergara told Netflix. They just killed one of her favorite persons in the world, one of her best friends a girl that she loved and protected.
