Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán has been extradited to the U.S. from México. After news broke that the drug lord was on the move, the only person that came to mind was Kate del Castillo. What did she think about Guzmán being turned over to U.S. authorities? Did she know beforehand? Is she going to include it in the movie she is developing about him? Luckily, people on Twitter took care of those questions and answered hilariously. Take a look at the messages that have been shared on the social network below and tell us what you think!

"'El Chapo' extradited? No, he went to go visit Kate," one user wrote.

"At least 'El Chapo' is now closer to Kate," another user wrote.

"Kate del Castillo and 'El Chapo' Guzmán are once again living in the same country."

"How does Kate del Castillo feel now that 'El Chapo' was extradited?"

"Kate and 'El Chapo' have reunited in the U.S. That's love."

"Maybe in the U.S., 'El Chapo' will come out of the friendzone where Kate del Castillo put him in."

"As a Valentine's Day gift, Peña has sent Kate 'El Chapo'"

"If Kate del Castillo doesn't come to me, take me to her," a user imagined "El Chapo" saying that.

Over a year ago, an interview with "El Chapo" was published by Rolling Stone magazine that was conducted by Sean Penn and brokered by Kate del Castillo. In the article it is made clear that it was thanks to the "La Reina Del Sur's" star connection to the Mexican druglord that Penn was able to meet the fugitive. "El Chapo" contacted these people to help create an autobiographical film detailing his life and his achievements in the drug trafficking world. Now, both actors are under investigation for that link.

When "El Chapo" was captured by authorities was presented to the media, Arely Gómez, Attorney General of Mexico, mentioned that it was thanks to these conversations between actors and producers that they were able to pinpoint "El Chapo's whereabouts. "Another important aspect that allowed us to find his location, was when it was discovered that Guzmán Loera wanted to make an autobiographical film," she said during the press conference. "Communication was established with actors and producers, which now are part of a new line of investigation; also the follow ups allowed us to document that encounters between the lawyers of the now detained individual and these people."

In the magazine story, Penn narrates that "El Chapo" reached out to the Mexican "Dueños Del Paraíso" actress after she penned an open letter where she states she believes more in the druglord than the Mexican government.
