Over a decade since The Wizards of Waverly Place last hit TV screens, the Russo twins are back for a reboot of the teen comedy show.
The original show provided Selena Gomez and David Henrie with their big break, and both stars reprise their roles for The Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, a whole new sequel show that’s exclusive to Disney Plus.
Picking up 12 years on from when the old series left off, Justin Russo (Henrie) is now a vice principal living on Staten Island and has been hiding his wizard past from his wife Giada (Mimi Gianopulos) and their children. But when his sister Alex (Gomez) unexpectedly drops off a talented teen wizard named Billie (Janice LeAnn Brown) at his home, Justin realizes it’s time to use his magical skills once more and become her mentor.
Will there be magic in the air again for this reboot? Find out by following our guide to watching The Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.
