Unicode list example is

How can I achieve this? thank you for your response.

Answer 1

try applying unicode to its elements

>>> lst=['Justice league', 'Avenger']
>>> map(unicode,lst)
[u'Justice league', u'Avenger']

Obviously we are talking about Python 2 only, since literal strings are unicode by default in Python 3
