David Henrie is teasing the Wizards of Waverly Place sequel series and his reunion with Selena Gomez . In a new interview, Henrie shared details on working with Gomez after 10 years since the original series was wrapped with a Disney Channel television movie. “It was awesome.
We didn’t want it to end. It was great,” Henrie told Us Weekly in an interview. “She’s so good.
She has such a quick wit that’s only gotten stronger.” Henrie and Gomez are set to reprise their roles as Justin and Alex Russo, respectively, in the sequel series tentatively titled Wizards .
