“To honour it in this way has truly been a blast,” she confessed.

She visibly felt moved by the significance of revisiting her iconic role, according to the LA Times.

The series is set to debut later this year on Disney Channel.

Selena reflected on her journey from Disney starlet to executive producer, according to Digital Spy.

She acknowledged the profound impact Wizards of Waverly Place had on her career.

“It’s something, you know, I don’t know about your life, you don’t know about my life,” she quipped.
