The trailer for the "Wizards of Waverly Place" spin-off series debuted Tuesday, and it reunites Selena Gomez with her onscreen brother, David Henrie.

Henrie takes center stage in the trailer, reprising his role from the original Disney Channel series as Justin Russo.

That is until his sister Alex (Gomez) shows up with the powerful young wizard Billie (Janice LeAnn Brown) and asks for his help in her wizard training.
