The Sticky is a fast-paced, dark comedy inspired by the true story dubbed the “Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist. From showrunners Ed Herro and Brian Donovan, the series follows Ruth Landry, 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 a hot-tempered Bostonian mobster, and a mild-mannered French-Canadian security guard to carry out a multi-million dollar heist on Quebec’s maple syrup surplus.

Inspired by a real-life heist that made international headlines in 2012, which saw more than $18 million worth of maple syrup stolen from Quebec’s national reserves. The Sticky combines moments of culture-clash hilarity, edge-of-the-seat excitement and heartbreaking drama.

Three-time Emmy winner Margo Martindale (Justified, The Americans, Mrs. America) stars in the series alongside Chris Diamantopoulos (Silicon Valley, The Three Stooges, The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse), Guillaume Cyr, Gita Miller (On the Basis of Sex, Fixation, Sharp Corner) and Guy Nadon. Oscar and Emmy winner Jamie Lee Curtis also appears as a guest star in the series in addition to executive producing.
