Margo Martindale cooks up a maple syrup heist in ‘The Sticky’ trailer

Margo Martindale is in a very sticky situation.

Amazon released the first trailer on Monday for the three-time Emmy winner’s new Prime Video dark comedy series “The Sticky” about a multimillion dollar heist on Quebec’s maple syrup surplus. Created by Ed Herro and Brian Donovan, the six-episode series stars Martindale as Ruth Landry, a tough syrup farmer who resorts to crime when authorities threaten to “take away everything she loves,” reads the logline. Ruth teams up with a “hot-tempered Bostonian mobster (Chris Diamantopoulos) and a mild-mannered French-Canadian security guard (Guillaume Cyr)” to carry out the maple syrup heist.

“The Sticky” is inspired by the true maple syrup heist in 2012 that saw 2012 more than $18 million worth of maple syrup stolen from Quebec’s national reserves.

All six episodes of “The Sticky” will drop on Friday, Dec. 6 on Prime Video.
