Selena Gomez’s career has come full circle as she returns to executive produce the television series that kickstarted her career.
During her Wednesday, June 27 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the 31-year-old singer and actress told her Only Murders in the Building co-star, Martin Short – who was guest hosting for Kimmel – that she is “so excited” for the upcoming sequel to her 2000s Disney show, Wizards of Waverly Place, called Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.“It’s basically something, you know, I don’t know about your life, you don’t know about my life. It’s a show that means a lot to me,” Gomez told Short, 74, who affirmed in response, “I know it does. Because you started out in that show. And also you’re appearing on it, too?”
“I will be in the first episode. I’m executive producing it,” Gomez clarified.
The Single Soon hitmaker continued, “It brings me to tears because that is the beginning of where I started. And to honor it in this way has truly been a blast, and I can’t wait for people to see it.”
