The Queensland Premiere and Minister for the Arts, Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced that one lucky Australian will win a walk-on role on Marvel Studios’ forthcoming THOR: RAGNAROK! Currently being shot in Queensland, the winner would receive a walk-on-role in the movie, backstage access and a Gold Coast holiday with three friends as part of a promotion between Tourism and Events Queensland (TEQ) and The Today Show.
“The winner will see the making of a Hollywood blockbuster and the brand new super stage, the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere, which the Government invested in and is being used for the very first time for this movie,” stated Palaszczuk. “This promotion and working with studios such as Marvel to ensure Thor was exclusively filmed in Queensland is a great opportunity to showcase our state and boost the economy.”
