Amazon Prime Video has just unveiled a new trailer for the Blumhouse produced series, The Sticky, starring Jamie Lee Curtis and fellow Emmy-winning actor Margo Martindale.
Synopsis:
The Sticky, a dark comedy, follows Ruth (three-time Emmy winner Margo Martindale), a middle-aged maple syrup farmer who turns to crime when the bureaucratic authorities threaten to take away everything she loves.
The Sticky stars Chris Diamantopoulos, Guillaume Cyr, and guest starring the aforementioned Oscar and Emmy winner Jamie Lee Curtis, who also executive produces.
All six episodes of the half-hour show will debut on Dec. 6, and while it’s based on the real 2012 Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist, in which more than $18 million worth of maple syrup was stolen from Quebec’s national reserves, the trailer makes it clear that “this is absolutely not the true story.”
The Sticky is the latest in a laundry list of collaborations between Blumhouse name sake Jason Blum and Prime Video. Other projects he executive produced for the streamer include films like The Manor, Black Box, Nocturne and shows like The Horror of Dolores Roach.
The Sticky is produced by Blumhouse Television, Curtis’ Comet Pictures, Jonathan Levine’s Megamix and Sphere Media. Series creators Brian Donovan and Ed Herro serve as executive producers, showrunners. Other executive producers include Levine and Gillian Bohrer for Megamix; Curtis for Comet Pictures; Blum, Chris Dickie, Jeremy Gold and Chris McCumber for Blumhouse Television; and Michael Dowse. Lauren Grant also serves as executive producer with Josée Vallée and Bruno Dubé for Sphere Media, Inc. Russell Goldman associate produces for Comet Pictures.
Jamie Lee Curtis has been exploring TV more and more, with her Emmy-winning turn in The Bear, and Margo Martindale is a well established TV icon with Emmy-winning roles in Justified and The Americans.
