Today, Disney released the official trailer for the upcoming Disney Channel and Disney+ series Wizards Beyond Waverly Place. The new series is a spin-off and sequel to Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place that will center around the Russo family, but this time Justin Russo’s family. Justin is now an adult and married with two children. However, he has chosen to lead a normal, mortal life until his sister Alex pays him a visit and introduces him to a young wizard-in-training named Billie. Justin becomes Billie’s mentor but as usual, things become chaotic in the Russo household just as they did in the orignal series.
