Wizards of Waverly Place fans are in shambles after the latest episode of the sequel series. We’re on the ground in New York this week, and the entire place is buzzing because Selena Gomez’s Alex Russo actually died in the Season 2 finale of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place! Just when you thought one week couldn’t deliver more emotional gut punches. (Step aside Peacemaker, it’s time for Disney Channel fans to grapple with a shocking ending of their own.) It’s a wild chain of events, and we’re here to walk you through it.
So, the central mystery of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place has been who Billie’s (Janice LeAnn Brown) real parents are? I mean, early in the show Alex just drops her off at Justin’s (a returning David Henrie) house. It’s a weird little note that is dangled above the audience’s head throughout these two seasons. We get some fun flashbacks where there’s clearly a secret life that we didn’t get to see Gomez’s character live in the years since Wizards of Waverly Place went off the air.
