The provisional celebrity narrator line-up for the 2014 Candlelight Processional is beginning to take shape, with some first timers joining returning favorites at Epcot's signature Holidays Around the World event.

Appearing for the first time at the 2014 Candlelight Processional will be actress Sharon Stone, and comedian Ana Gasteyer.

Here is the line-up so far, which as always, is subject to change and with many dates still to be determined.

Nov 28 to Nov 29 2014: Jodi Benson
Dec 5 to Dec 6 2014: Whoopi Goldberg
Dec 15 to Dec 17 2014: Sharon Stone
Dec 18 to Dec 20 2014: Ana Gasteyer
Dec 21 to Dec 23 2014: Marlee Matlin
Dec 28 to Dec 30 2014: Steven Curtis Chapman

Included with Epcot park admission, the Candlelight Processional is a retelling of the Christmas story by a celebrity narrator accompanied by a 50-piece orchestra and mass choir. Holidays Around the World takes place this year from November 28 to December 30 2014.

LeVar Burton and Edward James Olmos complete the 2014 Candlelight Processional line-up

I was also thinking that. Once we found out Groff was the narrator for the day we already have our lunch package, we considered trying to switch to a different day. But considering our dining reservations and FPs are already all in place, it really isn't feasible. Just another reason why all this massive planning is driving me crazy.

I was thinking the same thing. We have tickets for the evening of the 11th and are still wondering. One of only two slots left...

I don't know whether it's just me, but it seems as though the slots seem to be filling up slower than in previous years? I'm half expecting to not find out who we have tickets to until they step out on the stage that night at the rate that the names are being released!

Jonathan groff... Count me in.

Groff is a great actor. You won't be disappointed.

I would rank Whoopi as the second most popular narrator from the current group of regulars, right after NPH. The standby line will form early and will be quite lengthy.

Saw him last year, and I would rank him up there as one of the best CP narrators.

I think I was in denile. Thanks for being blunt with me.

Yes, it will be slammed.

I'm sorry if this question is a bit off topic, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere... we're hoping to go into Epcot on the evening of 12/6. Will it be really packed because Whoopi Goldberg is Narrating that night? We were thinking of doing some rides and getting a QS dinner in the World Showcase. Not very concerned with watching the show. Any advice? Are we crazy for not wanting to see Whoopi? I do really enjoy her work.
