Sofia Vergara is Nina in Touchstone's Big Trouble - 2002
Birth Date: July 10, 1972
Birth Place: Barranquilla, Colombia
Sofia Vergara was last seen starring in the comedy “Soul Plane,” alongside Tom Arnold and Snoop Dogg, and in “Lords of Dogtown.” She also starred in the comedy feature “Chasing Papi.”
Vergara made her Hollywood feature debut in Barry Sonnenfeld's comedy, “Big Trouble,” starring Tim Allen and Rene Russo, a role she landed after the director saw her captivating and humorous appearance at the American Comedy Awards. She went on to appear opposite Scott Speedman and James Marsden in Anthony Piccirillo's independent film, “The 24th Day.” On the small screen, she was recently seen starring on an episode of the hit series, “My Wife & Kids.”
One of the most loved personalities of the Latino world and a star on Hispanic television, Vergara has graced the covers of over 100 international magazines and hosted dozens of top Hispanic events. Her Hispanic television credits include “Fuera de Serie” (“Out of This World”) on Univision, and her own top-rated primetime one-hour weekly show “A que no te atreves” (“I Dare You”). When she became host of “La Bomba,” a syndicated music and interview TV show, she caused a ratings explosion.
In 1999, Nobel Peace Prize winner Rigoberta Menchú awarded Vergara with the Hispanic Woman of the Year Award, commending her leadership skills and her representing the qualities Latina women have to offer to the world. In 2001, she created Peace and Hope for the Children of Columbia, a charity foundation that has helped thousands of children in her country, and has donated a new cancer pavilion for children in her native Barranquilla. In 2002, she was awarded the Woman of Hope Award by the City of Hope as one of the outstanding role models for future generations.
