Margo Martindale plots The Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist in The Syrup

October 29, 2024 by Amie Cranswick

Prime Video has shared a trailer, posters and images for the upcoming dark comedy series The Sticky.

Inspired by a real-life heist in 2012,  Margo Martindale stars as a maple syrup farmer who finds herself desperately turning to a life of crime after the authorities threaten to shut down her farm and teams up with a mobster and mild-mannered security guard to steal millions of dollars of syrup.

The series stars Margo Martindale, Chris Diamantopoulos, and Guillaume Cyr, with a guest star appearance from executive producer Jamie Lee Curtis. Watch the trailer below…

The Sticky follows Ruth Landry (three-time Emmy Award winner Margo Martindale), a tough, middle-aged maple syrup farmer who turns to crime when the bureaucratic authorities threaten to take away everything she loves. She teams up with the hot-tempered Bostonian mobster (Chris Diamantopoulos), and a mild-mannered French-Canadian security guard (Guillaume Cyr) to carry out a multi-million-dollar heist on Quebec’s maple syrup surplus.

The Sticky arrives on Prime Video on December 6th.
