TORONTO – CraveTV has exclusively acquired the 10-episode drama Snatch in a deal with Sony Pictures Television.

Loosely based on the movie of the same name, Snatch stars Rupert Grint (Harry Potter), pictured, and centers on a group of twenty-something, up-and-coming hustlers, who stumble upon a truck load of stolen gold bullion and are suddenly thrust into the high-stakes world of organized crime. They must quickly learn to navigate the treacherous waters of London's underworld as rogue cops, international mobsters, and local villains descend.

Snatch will begin streaming exclusively on CraveTV on April 7.  Click here for a sneak peek.

"CraveTV Originals are key differentiators for CraveTV and we're excited to expand our slate to include this wild crime drama," said Bell Media's SVP of content and programming Mike Cosentino, in the news release. "Following in the spirit of film-to-television adaptations, we look forward to bringing this tale of London's underworld to Canadian viewers on CraveTV."
