Who else will take this stage? Two more names have been added to the Candlelight Processional narrator list! December 8 through 10 will feature Isabella Rossellini. The career of the daughter of Ingrid Bergman has spanned decades. Disney fans will know her as the voice of Ambassador Henrietta Selick in Incredibles 2. On December 27 and 28, fan favorite Marlee Matlin will return. The Academy Award winning actress is best known for her role in Children of a Lesser God. She is the only deaf actor to have won an Oscar.
The Candlelight Processional is one of the highlights of the Christmas Season at Walt Disney World. It takes place three times a night at Epcot. A celebrity narrator will read the Biblical Christmas story, backed by a mass choir and an orchestra. The choir is made up in part of local students and Cast Members. There are still two openings on the narrator list. I’ll update it again when we have more names. Remember, narrators can and do change sometimes.
