Selena Gomez, David Henrie Reprise Roles in Disney Spinoff ‘Wizards Beyond Waverly Place’ Trailer

In the new trailer for Disney spinoff Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, everything is not what it seems. Selena Gomez and David Henrie return to their wizard roots in the new clip, where an adult Alex Russo (Gomez) introduces an adult Justin Russo (Henrie) to Billie (Janice LeAnn Brown), a “rebellious and stubborn” wizard, as Alex puts it, in need of training. After Alex sways her brother to return to spell casting, he also juggles his docile, mortal lifestyle with his family.

“I know all this wizard stuff can be a lot, but I promise nothing is going to change,” Henrie says in the trailer.

The spinoff follows the highly popular Disney Channel series Wizards of Waverly Place, which ran from 2007 to 2012 and racked up two Emmys in the children’s program category. Gomez’s breakout role as Alex Russo catapulted her career, leading Gomez to star in Disney Channel movies including Another Cinderella Story, Princess Protection Program, and Ramona and Beezus. News of the spinoff broke in January, as Deadline reported, with Gomez announcing the sequel in May at Disney’s Upfront, an event that showcases the brand’s upcoming projects. Other cast members include Taylor Cora (American Gangster: Trap Queens), Alkaio Thiele (Call Me Kat), Max Matenko (Platonic), and Mimi Gianopulos (American Princess).

Gomez earned her first Emmy nod as a lead actress in a comedy series for her role in Only Murders in the Building. Earlier this month, the comedy series was renewed for a fifth season.

Wizards Beyond Waverly Place premieres Oct. 29 on Disney Channel, and the next day on Disney +.
