Wizards Beyond Waverly Place Finale Shocks Fans by Revealing [Spoiler] Is Dead
David DeLuise’s criticism comes as the finale reveals Mason’s death and closes the door on a major original-series romance.
- On Tuesday, August 4, 2026, the 'Wizards Beyond Waverly Place' series finale aired on Disney Channel, revealing that fan-favorite werewolf Mason Greyback died between the original series and the sequel.
- Original series star Alex Russo ended the 2012 show with Greyback, but the sequel established that Russo had a daughter, Billie, with her husband, former dark wizard Damien Penwulf.
- Inside the portal, Russo confronted an alternate version of Greyback who attempted to propose, though she realized the illusion was impossible, telling him, "Because you're dead," which jolted her back to reality.
- Executive producer David Henrie defended the creative decision, calling it the "cleanest version" to handle the couple's separation and noting that breaking up the couple would have angered fans equally.
- Greyback actor Gregg Sulkin supported the decision, stating he would "never say never" to future franchise opportunities and suggesting a prequel could explore the years leading up to the character's death.
