Wizards of Waverly Place Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Confession time — JJJ is seriously still in love with the brilliance of Wizards of Waverly Place.

We love everything about it — from Alex’s snarkiness, Justin’s smartness, Max’s weirdness, Harper’s crazy outfits to the magic, the monsters and everything. We just love it.

But up until last night, we didn’t realize how many guest stars, who starred alongside Selena Gomez, David Henrie, Jake T. Austin and Jennifer Stone, took a big leap in their careers and are killing it.

Everyone pretty much knows the big guest stars — Shakira, Dwayne Johnson, Jeff Garlin, Gregg Sulkin, Bridgit Mendler — but we totally forgot about these five guest stars that are pretty big in Hollywood right now.

It sounds like a Wizards of Waverly Place reboot isn’t completely out of the realm of possibility.

After former stars Selena Gomez and David Henrie talked about where their characters would be today, creator Todd J. Greenwald is responding with his own ideas.

“Umm @selenagomez @DavidHenrie…. Max sold the SubStation. It’s now a Jamba Juice. #wowp,” he tweeted. “Justin can’t stop dating Centaurs… he can’t quit the freaks. @selenagomez @DavidHenrie”

Todd continued, “I’m thinking a grown-up theatrical version of #wowp would be kinda fresh. #reboot”

TELL JJJ: Do you want to see Wizards come back in some way?

Welcome to Instagram stories, Selena Gomez!

The singer and actress reunited with her former Wizards of Waverly Place co-star David Henrie tonight, and he helped her create her first post.

In case you didn’t know, David was the one who helped Selena set up her Twitter account almost eight years ago, too!

Possibly in honor of the five-year anniversary of the show’s finale last night, the former Disney co-stars imagined what their Wizards characters would be doing today.

Some highlights: David‘s Justin Russo has 15 kids, Jake T. Austin‘s Max Russo either owns the substation, has lost the substation and is selling sandwiches on the street, OR is overweight and has kids as well.

And Selena‘s Alex Russo? “You know what, she’s killing the game, that’s what she’s doing,” Selena decides.

Even though JJJ was and still is a big fan of Wizards of Waverly Place, we did not know this!

David Henrie shared a fun little tidbit on Instagram today about the show, where he starred as Justin Russo.

“Fun fact about wizards of waverly place guarantee you you don’t know haha. Wanna know where it came from? Man taking it back to 06,” he captioned with the video, letting fans in on a little known secret about the series.

Turns out, Wizards came from another pilot called The Amazing O’Malleys — and Demi Lovato‘s older sister, Dallas, was supposed to star in it, as well as Brandon Mychael Smith!

In the upcoming special, the Russo family and friends travel to Tuscany, Italy to meet their long lost relatives…but when Alex (Gomez) tries to prove she’s more than a seemingly carefree young Wizard, she inadvertently conjures a spell that creates a Good Alex and an Evil Alex.

When Evil Alex gets roped into a charming young wizard’s (Mirchoff) foreboding plan to take over the world, Good Alex must find a way to save her family and humankind, which leads to a monumental battle between the two versions of herself – all atop the Tower of Pisa.
