The festival will also give priority entry to any moviegoers dressed like any of the superheroes from the Marvel universe.


On the same day, the Lucca fest will also play dress-up with another anticipated blockbuster: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, with models and one festival attendee invited to dress like characters from that film with the help of an acclaimed stylist and a designer. The selected festival goer will also be awarded a trip to Rome for the world festival premiere of the new Hunger Games film at the Rome Film Festival Nov. 14.


Thor: The Dark World will open wide in Italy Nov. 20 under the umbrella of The Walt Disney Co.-Italia.


The Hunger Games: Catching Fire will be released in Italy a week later.
