Check out other Disney Channel series that, like “Wizards of Waverly Place”, also deserved a revival
In January 2024, Deadline exclusively announced that Disney Branded Television would be producing a sequel to the renowned Disney Channel series “Wizards of Waverly Place”, a production known for boosting the career of the actress and singer Selena Gomez.
The revival, however, which is scheduled to premiere in the autumn of the northern hemisphere (between the months of September and November), should focus on Justin, the character played by the actor David Henriewith Selena making only a few special appearances.
The new episodes will follow Justin giving up his powers, after a mysterious incident happens at WizTech, and living an ordinary life alongside his wife and children. However, everything must change after a young wizard appears on the older Russian’s doorstep, forcing him to embrace his past and train the boy.
In addition to “Wizards of Waverly Place”, Disney Channel has a huge catalog of successful series that also deserved a revival — whether in the form of a series, film, or even a short film.
