Calling all movie buffs!
Member for Burnett Stephen Bennett is encouraging locals to snap up the opportunity to rub shoulders with Hollywood’s biggest stars by entering in a competition to score a walk-on role in the blockbuster movie Thor: Ragnarok.
Mr Bennett said it was an amazing opportunity for a local to be an extra in the Marvel Studios production, as well as experience backstage access for themselves and three friends.
“It’s all part of a Tourism and Events Queensland promotion, along with The Today Show,” he said.
“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and it would be wonderful to see someone from our region experience being on the same set as the likes of Chris Hemsworth and Cate Blanchett, among other big names.
“It’s exciting to see major productions like Thor being filmed right here in Queensland – what a great boost for our state’s economy.”
Mr Bennett said the competition was open to all Australian residents aged 18 years and over, and included return airfares from any Australian capital city, five nights’ accommodation on the Gold Coast, transfers to and from Village Roadshow Studios, backstage access on set and one walk-on-role in Thor: Ragnarok.
To enter, write in 25 words or less about your favourite Thor moment and explain why.
Mr Bennett said people had until 4pm Friday, September 2 to enter.
