New Details on Selena Gomez and ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ Sequel
Get ready, Wizards of Waverly Place fans! We have been patiently waiting for a sequel series and more details, and now we have them!
Wizards Beyond Waverly Place premiers just in time for the spooky season! Set to debut on October 29, 2024, the first two episodes will air on Disney Channel at 8 p.m. ET/PT, perfect for a magical Halloween night.
More Details
Disney Channel favorites are back on-screen and behind the camera. Selena Gomez and David Henrie return to their roles as Alex and Justin Russo and are also executive producers for the series.
Raven-Symoné and Danielle Fishel will also join them and direct episodes in this continuation of the beloved series.
The original Wizards of Waverly Place aired from 2007 to 2012 and developed a dedicated fanbase.
They have been eager for a revival of their favorite characters, and now, over a decade later, Disney is bringing the magic back.
In the new Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, Justin Russo is all grown up, living a “normal” life with his wife and their two sons, Roman and Milo.
However, things take a magical turn when a powerful young wizard named Billie shows up. The new series will explore Justin’s inner conflict as he decides whether to embrace his past as a wizard or stick to his new “normal” life.
New Cast
The new young wizard is played by Janice LeAnn Brown from Disney’s Just Roll With It. Additional new cast members include Taylor Cora as Billie’s quirky best friend Winter, Alkaio Thiele as Justin’s eldest son Roman, and Max Matenko as his youngest son Milo.
Fans can also expect a mix of new and old magic as the Russo family navigates new challenges in the wizarding world.
Remember to mark your calendars for October 29th and get ready to revisit Waverly Place.
