Alberto Angela made his debut at Lucca Comics & Games 2026 with a surprise appearance: he marched in a Mandalorian costume during the Star Wars parade, removing his helmet only upon arriving on the red carpet. In the afternoon, he met with Gianluca Gazzoli.
Alberto Angela arrived at Lucca Comics & Games 2026 dressed as the Mandalorian, the character from the Star Wars saga. Today, October 31, the science communicator took part in the parade dedicated to the universe created by George Lucas, marching alongside the group in the character’s full costume. Only once he reached the red carpet at the end of the parade did he remove his helmet, revealing his identity to the audience.
This marks Angela’s first appearance at Lucca Comics & Games. In the afternoon, at the Teatro del Giglio Giacomo Puccini, he was the featured guest at the event “Knowledge Is an Adventure,” in conversation with Gianluca Gazzoli. The event, dedicated to popular science and the power of storytelling, centered on the book *Cesare: La conquista dell’eternità*(Caesar: The Conquest of Eternity), published by Mondadori.
After spending years chronicling the great civilizations of the past, this time Angela chose to explore a distant galaxy and demonstrated that (perhaps) even popular science can afford to change its approach.
