The show’s pilot was written by Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas, who were both part of the team that rebooted the popular Disney series Raven’s Home. Original Waverly Place stars David Henrie and Selena Gomez also return to both star in and produce the new series.
The trailer for Wizards Beyond Waverly Place was released Sept. 24 and shows a mini-Waverly reunion between Henrie and Gomez after the latter brings Janice LeAnn Brown’s Billie to her brother’s home for help. Soon the siblings are back to their magical ways, once again tasked with saving the entire world.
The show’s official synopsis explains, “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place follows an adult Justin Russo, who has chosen to lead a normal, mortal life with his family, Giada, Roman, and Milo. When Justin’s sister Alex brings Billie to his home seeking help, Justin realizes he must dust off his magical skills to mentor the wizard-in-training while also juggling his everyday responsibilities — and safeguarding the future of the Wizard World.”
