Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, a continuation of the Emmy® Award-winning Wizards of Waverly Place, premieres with two episodes Tuesday, October 29, at 8 p.m. ET on Disney Channel. The first eight episodes will be available on Disney+ and Disney Channel On Demand the next day, Wednesday, October 30.

It was also announced today that Raven-Symoné (Raven’s Home) and Danielle Fishel (Girl Meets World) will direct episodes in Season 1.

Wizards Beyond Waverly Place follows an adult Justin Russo (David Henrie), who has chosen to lead a normal, mortal life with his family: Giada (Mimi Gianopulos), Roman (Alkaio Thiele), and Milo (Max Matenko). When Justin’s sister, Alex Russo (guest star Selena Gomez), brings Billie (Janice LeAnn Brown) 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.

Wizards Beyond Waverly Place also stars Taylor Cora as Winter.

Writers Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas executive produce with Gary Marsh, Jonas Agin, Gomez, and Henrie. Andy Fickman directs and executive produces the pilot and will direct multiple episodes in Season 1. Wizards of Waverly Place was created by Todd Greenwald.

Following the series’ Disney Channel premiere, two new episodes — including a Halloween-themed episode — will premiere October 30 on Disney Channel. Beginning November 8, episode premieres move to Fridays at 8 p.m. ET, with two episodes weekly.
