More than a year after the "Wizards of Waverly Place" hung up their wands, the show returns to Disney Channel with a one-hour special on Friday, March 15 at 8/7c.

Selena Gomez is back to star in and executive produce the event, dubbed "The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex".

In the special, the Russo family and pals travel to Tuscany, Italy, to meet relatives. But while attempting to prove that she's serious about her craft as a wizard, Alex (Gomez) accidentally conjures up a spell that splits her personality into two — a Good Alex and an Evil Alex. The two dueling Alexes eventually battle over the fate of her family and mankind atop the Tower of Pisa.

Series stars Jake T. Austin, Jennifer Stone, Maria Canals-Barrera, David DeLuise, Gregg Sulkin and Beau Mirchoff return for the special.

"The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex" will first debut Friday, March 8 on Disney Channel On Demand. The special will be available for iTunes download starting Tuesday, March 19.

Vince Cheung, Ben Montanio and Dan Berendsen wrote the special, while Victor Gonzalez directed.

This looks intriguing! I love the show and I loved the original movie so I think this should be a good one!

I hate that Justin's character is not in it, but I understand that the actor wanted to move on from the show. Still, I usually like "Wizards of Waverly Place" pretty well and I'll probably check this out tonight.

Disney Channel’s New "Wizards of Waverly Place" TV Movie Draws 5.9 Million Viewers
by NELLIE ANDREEVA
Saturday March 16, 2013

The "Wizards of Waverly Place" and star Selena Gomez couldn’t quite capture the magic of the hit franchise’s heyday. Last night’s Disney Channel original movie "The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex", delivered 5.9 million total viewers.

That was less than half the audience of the 2009 TV movie "Wizards of Waverly Place the Movie" (13.5 million), which ranks as the #2 cable TV movie ever (behind High School Musical 2).

Still, "Alex vs. Alex" did better than recent Disney Channel films like Girl vs. Monster (4.9 million) and Let It Shine (5.7 million).

It delivered 2.9 million Kids 2-11, 2.3 million Kids 6-11 and 2.2 million Tweens 9-14, ranking as the #1 cable TV telecast of 2013 to date in Tweens 9-14, the #2 cable TV telecast in Kids 2-11 and Kids 6-11, and the #1 kids’ cable TV telecast in Total Viewers.

The hourlong special buoyed an all-new episode of "Gravity Falls" to a series high in Total Viewers (4.5 million). It posted its #2 telecast ever in Tweens 9-14 (1.7 million) and #3 telecast in Kids 2-11 (2.5 million).

Yeah, I wondered about that when I saw the previews whether or not David Henrie was going to be in this or not. I haven't seen it yet either but I plan on watching it this week sometime.
