Ezra and Darrin posted a new behind the scenes video on the WOWP set, make sure you watch!

Life gets trickier for the Russos as the new season of Wizards of Waverly Place picks up right where things left off in October’s Season 3 finale, after the magical bunch escaped from a government agency holding them captive. Selena Gomez, who plays middle child Alex, fills us in on what to expect with the show, including the chances of a fifth season.

TV Guide Magazine: The third-season finale really shook things up. What’s next?
Gomez: Alex ends up exposing to the world that she’s a wizard, which leads to her losing her powers.

TV Guide Magazine: That’s a shocker!
Gomez: I was really nervous, but I didn’t want the show to become repetitive. Our writers completely pulled it off and came up with this story line that lets the characters branch out.

TV Guide Magazine: One thing doesn’t change: Alex and werewolf Mason (Gregg Sulkin) are still an item, right?
Gomez: The audience loves their relationship — and I do, too! They are the typical teenage couple, but with complications that other kids don’t have to deal with, which makes it funny.

TV Guide Magazine: Any chance your BFF Taylor Swift will guest star?
Gomez: No, just because I never want our friendship to be exploited. She’s like my family, and I wouldn’t want anything to mess that up.

TV Guide Magazine: Word is that Season 4 is going to be the last…
Gomez: I’m not really sure. [Wizards] has been such an important part of my life — I’m going to be the worst at saying goodbye.

Wizards of Waverly Place airs Friday at 9:45/8:45c on Disney Channel. Gomez conjures up scoop on Season 4 in exclusive videos at disneychannel.com

Selena Gomez returns to the small screen tonight and everything is not as it seems when the new season of “Wizards of Waverly Place” premieres. Now, ET talks to the 18-year-old star about being a part of the wizarding world, dating and avoiding the pitfalls that other young stars experience.

ET: What can we look forward to this season on “Wizards of Waverly Place”?

Selena Gomez: It has definitely impressed me, to be honest, because our show has been on so long and we have done so many episodes. I know that magic is endless. I was a little weary coming into this season, wanting to make sure we came back with a bang. They have surprised me. We are coming back with really fun storylines.

ET: On the first episode, do you reveal to the world that you are a witch?

Selena Gomez: I do. I expose that we are wizards. It is actually a test that ends up kicking me and my brother out of the wizard competition. So throughout the whole season, you find my character and David Henrie’s character trying to get back into the competition because that was actually a test.

Just Jared Jr posted this behind the scenes video of David’s latest photoshoot with Steven Taylor. I can’t wait for the pictures to actually be released! I also want to apologize for not updating the site these past couple of weeks, I just wasn’t able to but I think I catched up now.

Los Angeles Times posted this great review of Wizards of Waverly Place. Don’t forget to tune in to the season premiere tonight on the Disney Channel! I also added a couple of behind the scenes pictures :)

Everything is not as it seems as the Disney show returns for a fourth season. Still, the series remains funny and clever, with a dab of Potter and a dollop of ‘Twilight.’

Just as the Harry Potter series begins its elongated cinematic finale, Disney Channel’s own version of the wizarding world, “Wizards of Waverly Place,” has hit the reset button.

The show revolves around the magical education of the three Russo siblings, who are vying with each other to become the next family wizard. It’s always had a bigger built-in narrative obstacle than most kids’ shows — not only will the stars inevitably age out of the its demographic, but by the end of three seasons, one of them also had to be close to winning. So, at the end of Season 3, the government stepped in and turned off all the magic, leaving wizards-in-training Alex ( Selena Gomez), Justin ( David Henrie) and Max (Jake T. Austin) and their wizard father ( David DeLuise) just as powerless as their mortal mother ( Maria Canals-Barrera).

As the Season 4 premiere — and the groovy new rendition of the theme song — indicates, “everything is not what it seems.” At the risk of tripping a spoiler alert, let’s just say that no one is going to be the new Russo family wizard any time soon. Having lost “Hannah Montana” to Miley Cyrus’ new grown-up career, Disney’s not about to let its new No. 1 show end because of something silly like academic realism.

Alex quits her wizard training after she decides there will never be enough time to regain her status and compete for the title of family wizard. However, she is shocked to learn that, as a mortal, she will no longer be able to date Mason. Meanwhile, after meeting with the Wizard Family Competition Commissioner, Justin decides to tutor delinquent wizards and do whatever it takes to get himself back in the running for the wizard competition. And a family of Cucuys, Latino mythical monsters, invites the Russos for an evening on their yacht, in a new episode of “Wizards of Waverly Place,” premiering Friday, November 19 (8:30-9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney Channel

WHO: Henrie stars as Justin Russo in Disney Channel’s hit series “Wizards of Waverly Place.” Other credits include Disney’s “Dadnapped,” a recurring role in “That’s So Raven,” and “How I Met Your Mother,” as well as guest starring roles on “Cold Case,” “House,” “NCIS,” “Without a Trace” and “Judging Amy.”

WHAT: LA’s BEST, a nationally recognized afterschool education, enrichment and recreation program, serves 28,000 kids at 180 elementary school sites in Los Angeles. Org provides safe and supervised afterschool programs for elementary school children.

WHY: “I had been looking for a philanthropic cause to support, and I wanted to be able to contribute a skill set other than ‘I’m on a TV show and kids know me.’ So I thought about what my favorite things to do are and what helped me in life. That’s when I thought of improv. So I teamed up with Peter Murrieta’s Bang Improv and LA’s BEST and entered one of their school enrichment programs and taught improv classes. It was great to see the kids come out of their shells and discover personalities that they didn’t even know existed.”

WHAT’S NEXT: In the upcoming months, Henrie will continue to teach improv class at LA’s BEST affiliated schools. Additionally, org is selling tickets to the November opening night performance of “Cinderella” at L.A.’s El Portal Theater. Proceeds will benefit program.
