Oscar winners Ben Affleck and Matt Damon executive produced a unique interactive web series for go90 called "The Runner," which plans to award at least $1 million in prizes over the next 30 days.
On the series, one person is chosen to be the runner. He or she has to arrive at six checkpoints across the US in order to collect as much as $500,000.
There are also five chase teams on his tail. So if the runner gets caught, he goes home with zip.
The chase teams will get daily clues as to the runner's location. Each day that the runner eludes them, the bounty increases by $15,000.
