Ben Affleck has added another big achievement to his career after winning one million dollars on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
The 53-year-old actor reached the top prize on the popular game show and chose to donate the full amount to his charity, the Eastern Congo Initiative.
Affleck appeared on US version of the show with Jeopardy! champion Jamie Ding.
The pair came back for another episode with only two questions left before they could win the jackpot.
Before the game started, the Batman actor talked about his charity, saying that it supports local groups in eastern Congo, where people have been affected by years of war and hardships.
The first question they faced, however, was worth 500,000 dollars. Both gave the correct answer was the Wright brothers’ first plane flight, but they still used their 50 50 lifeline to be safe.
Their answer was correct and they moved on to the final question.
The last question which was asked was which turkey name had never been used during the White House Thanksgiving tradition. To which they both asked host Jimmy Kimmel for his opinion and also tried to call a friend, but nobody answered before time ran out.
In the end, they trusted Kimmel’s choice and picked Spaghetti and Meatball. It was the right answer.
Ben Affleck then celebrated his win before accepting a giant cheque.
