Well, you can do something like

 >>> from cgi import escape
 >>> nop = lambda x: x
 >>> tup = (35, '34', 0, 1, 31, 0, '&#26082;&#28639;')
 >>> ops = [nop, "<span class='H'>{0}</span>".format, bool, bool, 
nop, bool, escape]
 >>> [f(x) for f, x in zip(ops,tup)]
[35, "<span class='H'>34</span>", False, True, 31, False, 
'&amp;#26082;&amp;#28639;']

Note #1: I had to change your format from "{}" to "{0}", at least 
in 2.6 I've got here)

Note #2: it's spelled ".format" not ".format()" which puts the 
function reference in the "ops" list, not the results of calling it.
