If you are an OG fan of the Disney Channel‘s hit television series, The Wizards of Waverly Place, then you know that Selena Gomez sang the original theme song of the show entitled, “Everything Is Not What It Seems”. Well, for the new sequel series, Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, actress, Janice LeAnn Brown is taking the mic and has remade the theme song! Take a listen now, you won’t be disappointed!
Brown sat down with JustJaredJr.com, in a previous exclusive interview, telling the outlet that OG originals, Selena Gomez (Alex Russo) and David Henrie (Justin Russo), made the set feel “welcoming”.
“At first [I felt intimidated working with them], yes, ’cause I wasn’t really sure, obviously, I didn’t really know them, but they just kind of made it so welcoming and safe for me to just be myself.”
“They just kind of, in a way, took all the pressure off, if that makes sense,” she continued. “They made me feel like I don’t have to be perfect. They just kind of told me to just be myself, how I think Billie is, just become Billie, and when I become Billie, that’s how it’s supposed to be. Don’t try to worry about pleasing other people and to just be myself. So, they made it very safe enough for me to just have fun.”
She concluded, “So, I would say it was intimidating at first, but the moment I met them, I immediately felt safe.”
The “welcoming” spirit that Gomez and Henrie fostered on set unquestionably extended to Brown’s stepping into Gomez’s shoes, because she undoubtedly knocked it out the park with her remake.
If Brown’s face looks familiar, it should. Her resume includes projects such as: Black-ish, Euphoria, Do You Want to See a Dead Body, Just Roll with It, among others.
As of now, there is no word if Wizards of Beyond Waverly Place has been renewed for a season two. However, with the release of this Brown’s rendition of the theme song and the show’s strong performance; many fans and industry insiders believe a season 2 is on the horizon!
