    Selena Gomez is scheduled to make a comeback to Waverly Place. The celebrated performer and vocalist will be revisiting her depiction of Alex Russo in a continuation to the series that jump-started her career in Wizards of Waverly Place. Her on-screen sibling, David Henrie, has also been confirmed to return. The revival will be centered around a new and influential young magician in need of mentoring.

    Gomez has officially revealed the news on her Instagram stories, sharing a picture from the series with the statement, “WE’RE BACK.”

    At present, Gomez is only set to appear in the pilot, which has been commissioned by Disney Branded Television. Both she and Henrie will also fulfill the role of executive producers. It is unclear whether Gomez would make further appearances if the series is picked up. Henrie is scheduled to take on a regular position in the series. Joining him will be Janice LeAnn Brown, Alkaio Thiele, and Mimi Gianopulos.

    The sequel will focus on an adult Justin Russo, who has relinquished his magical abilities to lead a conventional life with his partner and two children. However, he will be compelled to revert to his magical way of life after encountering a young magician in need of his support.

    Broadcasted from 2007 to 2012, Wizards of Waverly Place introduced audiences to the Russo family, an apparently ordinary household which consists of three children with mystical talents who must one day compete to become the only magician in the family. Gomez’s character of Alex Russo was an adored figure and the topic of widespread speculation about her sexual orientation.

    Recently, Peter Murrieta, the show’s creator for the initial four seasons, verified that the character is bisexual. There is no confirmation yet on whether this disclosure will be integrated in the revival.

    Selena Gomez is currently appearing in the Hulu comedy, Only Murders in the Building, which has earned her numerous nominations for Best Actress in a Comedy for her portrayal of Mabel Mora. She also holds an executive producer acknowledgment on the show.
