Dallas, TX (WFN) -- Billionaire businessman and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is throwing around some of his chump change -- and, if you're lucky, you might get some.

Cuban is starring in a new ABC reality show, "The Benefactor," and its premise is that he's planning to give away $1 million to a stranger for any number of whimsical reasons.

In his words: "You don't need special talents. I'm not looking to find out who is the grossest, funniest, smartest or able to go without food or water the longest. The right person is going to get on my good side at the right time and, whoever that is, is going to walk away with a check for one million dollars."

"Benefactor" producers will start holding casting calls on March 27 in Boston, Atlanta, Dallas and Boise, Idaho.

Out of those who audition, 15 will be selected to be on the show, which will debut this summer.
