Remember Disney's "Wizards of Waverly Place," the tween series that featured a young Selena Gomez?
The show lasted four seasons from 2007-2012 and lives on to a new generation through streaming. And now the program joins the latest series to offer a reboot for new generation with "Wizards Beyond Waverly Place." Gomez serves as an executive producer and will guest star along most of the original cast members. But one original cast member — David Henrie — gets top billing as the star of the new show as he revives his character Justin Russo.
Henrie, who is also an executive producer, is back as with a new cast. Russo is a married father now who has been living a normal life until called upon to mentor Billie, a young wizard played by Janice LeAnn Brown.
Co-host Bruce Miller talks with Henrie and Brown about the new Disney+ program.
