Actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are teaming up as executive producers for a futuristic spy thriller TV series called "Incorporated".

The duo are making the series via their Pearl Street Films for Syfy network. The drama will be set in a world where corporations have unlimited power and will delve into a story of one man's efforts to beat the system, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

"Incorporated" will mark their production company's first scripted cable project.

However, this is not the first TV series on their slate. Last year, executives at Fox had decided to shoot a pilot episode for a drama called "The Middle Man", which was to be directed by Affleck. But now the studio bosses have decided to delay the project in order to accommodate his upcoming movie "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice" shooting schedule.
