One Word Awesome !
shareWow.. This is exciting news, but only an hour special? They could've at least made a DCOM. It also looks like David Henrie (Justin) won't be in this.
"Has anyone seen my bucket of plutonium? It's about yay big and is super radioactive."
Ya I saw that to maybe he is still negotiating and will be in it when all is said and done
shareNo David Henrie, no point.
All he had was sushi and one PINK FLOYD record to last him all summer.
I'll watch it if it doesn't have Henrie in it but I won't like it. I guess it is good if he has moved on though.
The first two/three seasons it was like both Alex and Justin were the main character. Then Justin suddenly turned into a douche and Alex was the star of the show. It would have been nice to see it go back to the way it was when the show was at it's best.
It will probably be a lame romance like they used to do with sabrina the teenage witch movies.
Hank! I had my pubes shaved. I'm gonna put them under the pillow for the tooth fairy!
Yeah, a DCOM would have been better. It will be sad to see it without Justin. Hopefully the a least say how he is doing with Wiztech and Juliet.

This is amazing news!
shareThere is good in the world! lol
This is great because I have been mourning a lot of old Disney shows lately (Hannah, Lizzie, Wizards, etc.)

So apparently it will be set in Italy. Does anyone have any ideas on what the plot might be? I kind of hope that Mason is NOT in it lol. I wouldn't mind Juliet, though. I kind of wish that it would be set in Tribeca because I would like to see Waverly Place and the sub shop again. Also I hope Jennifer Stone signs on! :D
shareIt looks like Jennifer and Gregg Sulkin (Mason) are both signed on. Unfortunately, I doubt Bridgit Mendler is going to be a part of it, especially if David Henrie isn't, seeing as she has Good Luck Charlie to film.
"Pretending not to love you was the hardest thing I've ever done."
"Real or not real?"
so it's a "special episode", not a TV movie? could possibly mean there will be others? what's the problem with David Henrie not coming back, I'm French and not up to date with everything going on in USA series
shareI probably won't watch since Justin's not in it. I loved WOWP for its brother/sister banter between Justin and Alex. They were basically almost joint leads for most of the show and season 4 stunk because they sidelined Justin and made the show almost completely about Alex. Which makes me think that this will stink too. I mean I understand that David Henrie is filming another movie during that time but surely Disney should have tried to work around it since Justin is such an important character. It seems unfair to finish WOWP without him.
shareWell he might not have wanted to do it. I don't really blame him if that is the case. He is an adult now, maybe he wants to just get away from Disney or the main role his is known for.
Hank! I had my pubes shaved. I'm gonna put them under the pillow for the tooth fairy!
Well what I've read about this in articles online is that David can't do the film because he's filming for another movie during the same period of time and the dates are too hard to adjust. If that is the truth than Disney should have changed their shooting schedule so David could be a part of it too. If he was refusing then they shouldn't do it at all. WOWP was about the whole family and its just not the same without all the cast agreeing to reunite.
shareI'm excited about this and I hope Max gets a somewhat larger part now that Justin isn't going to be around. I think it should've been a DCOM again though.
shareJustin has to be in it. I mean David Henrie is Italian for Christ's sake!
shareHeard about this a few weeks ago. Great news but makes me sad that the show is over. Wouldn't it have been great if they did a spin off?
This is going to be bittersweet.
I was so excited when I heard about this, until I realized there would be no Justin. Even though he kind of became douchey in the last season I feel like this shouldn't be done without him.
"Pretending not to love you was the hardest thing I've ever done."
"Real or not real?"
I think somehow this could even be good without Justin. They could come up with an excuse like he's busy with his new job at Wiztech and they could focus more on Max. We can actually see how Alex could fix her own problem without Justin's help.
