Alejandro Sosa

Sosa is portrayed by Paul Shenar in the film and voiced by Robert Davi in the 2006 video game, and speaks with an American accent.

[2] Alejandro Sosa is presented in the film as a Bolivian landowner, hailing from a rich family, educated in England and currently the business brain and drug overlord of an empire that stretches across the Andes region.

Frank Lopez (Robert Loggia) sends Tony Montana (Al Pacino) and Omar Suarez (F. Murray Abraham) to make a drug deal with Sosa who asks them to guarantee the buying of a certain amount of cocaine every month.

Sosa gives immediate respect to Tony due to his honesty and straightforward demeanour, even agreeing that Omar fooling Lopez "could happen to anyone".

Montana agrees and heads to New York City with Sosa's henchman Alberto "The Shadow", planning to detonate a bomb in the journalist's car.

Sosa is not seen (though his voice is heard through much of the game) until the final mission where he held a meeting with Gaspar Gomez and George Sheffield regarding the fact that Tony has taken over all of Miami and is now after them.

Sosa says that in their business, sometimes children have to be killed, particularly so "heroes don't go on 60 Minutes", referring to the journalist who on national TV named him and many of his allies as reputed drug traffickers.

Montana then executes Sosa by shooting him 30 times with an AK-47 (with an under-barrelled Remington 870), unloading the entire magazine, and leaving his bullet-riddled corpse slumped against his couch.
