There will be two new well know names among the Celebrity Narrators features in Epcot’s 2016 Candlelight Processional line-up. Taking part this year, for the first time, in one of Walt Disney World’s most beloved and cherished traditions will be Major League Baseball Hall-of-Famer Cal Ripken, Jr., and Ming-Na Wen, a familiar face (or should we say voice) to most Disney fans as she starred as the voice of Mulan, and is now currently starring in ABC-TV’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D”.)
