Wizards of Waverly Place is where everyone fell in love with Selena Gomez, and it's also one of the most popular and well-liked Disney Channel shows to have ever hit the television screen. However, this show has been over for years, and not everyone has been in the spotlight like Selena Gomez.
From Max to Justin, where are the actors behind these lovable Disney Channel characters? It's time to hunt them down in 2020, and figure out what they've been up to since the end of this popular series - from acting to marriage to directing to kids.
10 David Henrie
David Henrie stole everyone's hearts as Justin Russo, whether or not he was the annoying and smart older brother. Since then, he's had some a handful of small roles. However, he just made his directorial debut! Catch This Is The Year.
On the personal side of things, he tied the knot to Maria Cahill in 2017, and he actually has a kid! That's right, this Disney Channel actor is definitely no longer a kid himself. Plus, he's been working with Gregg Sulkin on the sidelines, too!
9 Gregg Sulkin
Fans definitely had a crush on this character, just like Alex Russo did. He was a werewolf back on Disney Channel, but this British actor has still been trying to make it big! He had a recurring role in Faking It and Runaways.
Unfortunately for all fans, he's been tied to Michelle Randolph for quite some time. Plus, these two are actually pretty huge on social media!
8 Maria Canals-Barrera
This actress definitely left a mark on every young viewer by playing the fierce and hilarious mother, Theresa. Since then, she's had some minor roles here and there, from television shows to movies.
Outside of acting, she's actually been married since 1999! She's a full-time mom to her two daughters, too, although they're not exactly little kids anymore, either.
7 Bridgit Mendler
In a world of wizards and werewolves, fans will remember this actress as Justin's vampire girlfriend. After her role in this show, she went on to star in another Disney Channel hit, Good Luck Charlie.
Since then, she's been a bit on the quieter side but actually teamed up with fellow Disney Channel star, Ashley Tisdale, for the Netflix series, Merry Happy Whatever. She also got married in 2019 to Griffin Cleverly.
6 Jennifer Stone
Jennifer Stone is a talented and stunning bombshell today, but fans will certainly remember her quirky character and outfits when she played Harper on the show. Since then, she's had some acting roles, with a recurring part in Deadtime Stories.
However, she's actually also a nurse! So, acting isn't the only thing she's good at, and it's incredible to see her living her best life now in 2020.
5 Daniel Samonas
This actor was the bad boy crush that everyone had and played Alex's boyfriend, Dean. After the show came to an end, Daniel Samonas has actually been pretty quiet. He was in Destiny Road and Brother's Keeper.
So, there isn't much to continue hyping over when it comes to this heartthrob's acting career, but fans can certainly keep wishing for some more screen time and follow him on social media, where he has a wood-working business!
4 David DeLuise
This television dad is definitely everyone's favorite of the sorts. When he stopped teaching wizardry and magic on this Disney Channel show, he's certainly been busy in movies and television series.
He's had some cameos in some popular shows, and fans will probably recognize him from Shameless or Grey's Anatomy. He divorced from his wife way back in 2003, but he does have two children, too.
3 Daniel Benson
Fans will remember this quirky and adorable actor as Zeke, Justin's equally nerdy friend, that equally annoyed Alex. Since the show, Benson is another actor that has definitely been a bit more on the quiet side.
He was a voice actor in a few episodes of Rick and Morty, and most recently had a role in Killing Diaz this year, in 2020. Other than that, this is another actor that fans will have to celebrate by re-watching Wizards of Waverly Place over and over again. Although, this actor has had quite the glow-up since.
2 Jake T. Austin
While this young actor made an impression on everyone as Max, he's certainly matured and become a pretty commendable actor. He had a recurring role on The Fosters, and has also dabbled in some voice acting.
This handsome young man is still in his 20s, so while he's still flying solo, he has two dogs, and he's set to star in another television serious in 2021. Plus - he's another heartthrob on this list, now, for sure.
1 Selena Gomez
Compared to her co-stars, it's safe to say that Selena Gomez has made it the loudest and the brightest. From her impressive and stunning music career to her leap over to Hollywood, Gomez has been on everyone's radar for years.
With nearly 200 million followers on Instagram, this bombshell has never been able to keep out of the limelight. From her new makeup line to her beautiful 2020 album, Selena Gomez is definitely no longer just Alex Russo.
