Now that the sequel series has ended its three-season run, “Wizards of Waverly Place” star Jake T. Austin has finally opened up about not being included in “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.”

Austin, who played youngest sibling Max Russo on all four seasons of the hit Disney Channel sitcom, was the only key cast member from the original show to not appear in the revival, which aired for three seasons on Disney Channel and follows Justin Russo (David Henrie) as a dad training his own children to be wizards.
