More like a mini-season, perhaps as a rush job to tie up lose ends.


Popular Disney+ TV Show Renewed, Ending With Season 3
-----------------------------------------------------
Disney has officially announced the Season 3 renewal of one of
its popular coming-of-age comedy shows, which will serve as its
final installment. Disney+ and Disney Channel's Wizards Beyond
Waverly Place is coming back for one last time in a four-part
event, which will begin shooting next week.

What do we know about the Wizards Beyond Waverly Place Season 3?
Emmy nominee Selena Gomez will once again reprise her iconic
role as Alex Russo in the final season of the Wizards of Waverly
Place spin-off. In addition to guest-starring and executive
producing, Gomez will also direct Season 3's premiere episode,
marking her directorial debut. The four-part event is expected
to premiere sometime this summer on Disney+, Disney Channel, and
Disney Channel On Demand.

"In Season 3, Billie, still reeling from losing Alex at the end
of Season 2, discovers that the only way to rescue her mother is
to reunite with her long-lost father," reads the logline. "As her
family bands together to find Alex, Billie realizes that their
combined power is the only way the Russos can defeat the evil
plaguing them."

Wizards Beyond Waverly Place is written and executive-produced by
Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas, based on the Wizards of Waverly
Place characters created by Todd J. Greenwald. The ensemble cast
includes David Henrie as Justin Russo, Janice LeAnn Brown as
Billie, Alkaio Thiele as Roman Russo, Max Matenko as Milo Russo,
Taylor Cora as Winter, and Mimi Gianopulos as Giada Russo.
Executive producers are Gary Marsh, Jonas Agin, Rick Williams,
Gomez, and Henrie.
