Disney Hosts “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” World Premiere In Hollywood
Just ahead of the release of the new “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” series, Disney held a world premiere event on Monday evening for the show at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, California.
Attendees were treated to an exclusive screening ahead of the series premiere on October 29th 2024, on Disney Channel and the next day on Disney+. Guests were then immersed in the “Wizards” world at a magical reception held at the historic Hollywood Roosevelt.
“Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” is a continuation of the Emmy Award-winning “Wizards of Waverly Place” and follows an adult Justin Russo, who has chosen to lead a normal, mortal life with his family, Giada, Roman and Milo. When Justin’s sister Alex brings Billie 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.
In attendance at the premiere were executive producer and guest star Selena Gomez (Alex Russo), executive producer and series star David Henrie (Justin Russo), series lead Janice LeAnn Brown (Billie), and fellow series regulars Alkaio Thiele (Roman Russo), Max Matenko (Roman Russo), Taylor Cora (Winter) and Mimi Gianopulous (Giada Russo). Additionally, the creative team behind the series joined in on the festivities, including showrunners and executive producers Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas, executive producers Gary Marsh and Jonas Agin, and the creator of “Wizards of Waverly Place” Todd Greenwald.
Distinguished celebrities and guests included Kylie Cantrall, Corbin Bleu, Monique Coleman, Danielle Fishel, Hayley Kiyoko, and many more.
