Selena Gomez admits she signed her life away to ‘Disney’ at a young age

The 29-year-old singer recently opened up about starring as the young wizard in the popular Disney Channel series, Wizards of Waverly Place. While promoting her new Hulu series, Only Murders in the Building, at the TCA Summer 2021 Tour, the Rare Beauty founder admitted, "I signed my life away to Disney at a very young age and I didn't know what I was doing." Selena – who instantly became a household name when she starred as the spunky high-school student from 2007 until the show's end in 2012 – also mentioned that the plot of her upcoming murder-mystery series intrigued her enough to return to the small screen after almost ten years. Selena also noted, "It's just really nice to be back on TV and it's nice to be cast as my actual age, which never happens. So, I am very happy to be doing this." Co-star Steve Martin gushed that when Selena Gomez is on screen, "the show is elevated and more mysterious. Martin also chimed in, sharing, "It was a dream to work with this brilliant young lady." The anticipated crime series has a premiere date of Aug. 31.
