This is not a legal tender instrument and was never issued by any arm of the United States government. The "million dollar" novelty note format — typically bearing disclaimer text in small print — has been produced by countless private publishers since at least the 1970s, trading on the visual authority of Federal Reserve Note design conventions without meeting any legal definition of currency. Themed variants tied to entertainment properties are among the most common.
