Writting a Django Query for Nested MySQL or SQL queries

Question

I have a query[1] in MySQL which im using to derive an answer for the question (Movies in which acted has acted) .I am getting the correct rowset in MySQL.

I now want to know how can I convert query[1] into a Django query :: the query is as follow::

SELECT movie_name 
  FROM movies_movie 
 WHERE movie_id 
    IN ( SELECT movie_id 
           FROM movies_crew 
          WHERE Crew_name_id 
             IN ( SELECT crew_id 
                    FROM movies_crewname 
                   WHERE name 
                    LIKE %shaun%));

NOTE::

The movie_id is the PK of movies table
movies_crew contains crew_name_id (referenced from movies_crewname) and movie_id (referenced from movies)
movies_crewname contains crew_id as PK

Can someone please show me the right way to write Django query?
