No problem with a 441 for narration. Use what you have.
The new Neumann radio mic uses the same capsule.

What kind of room do you have to put your talent in? What size?
Almost any microphone mentioned will work fine in an acousticaly good space.
A small space full of foam is the worst you can do. Rather try to put in some low freq absorbers to kill room modes (100-300Hz)and some hi/mid freq diffusers which will make the voice sound rich without the use of an equalizer. Money spent in acoustic is the best investment you can make, and if the budget is tight you can make the acoustic modules yourself rather cheaply.
It’s funny how most people start with microphones. It is easy to go and buy a new mic, but not so easy to build a proper acoustic space. People who discuss about hi end microphones on pro audio forums usually already have great sounding rooms. Good acoustic to sound is the same as proper light is to video.
good luck
