Will Wizards of Waverly Place Vanish?

Life gets trickier for the Russos as the new season of Wizards of Waverly Place picks up right where things left off in October's Season 3 finale, after the magical bunch escaped from a government agency holding them captive. Selena Gomez, who plays middle child Alex, fills us in on what to expect with the show, including the chances of a fifth season.
TV Guide Magazine: The third-season finale really shook things up. What's next?
Gomez: Alex ends up exposing to the world that she's a wizard, which leads to her losing her powers.
TV Guide Magazine: That's a shocker!
Gomez: I was really nervous, but I didn't want the show to become repetitive. Our writers completely pulled it off and came up with this story line that lets the characters branch out.
TV Guide Magazine: One thing doesn't change: Alex and werewolf Mason (Gregg Sulkin) are still an item, right?
Gomez: The audience loves their relationship — and I do, too! They are the typical teenage couple, but with complications that other kids don't have to deal with, which makes it funny.
TV Guide Magazine: Any chance your BFF Taylor Swift will guest star?
Gomez: No, just because I never want our friendship to be exploited. She's like my family, and I wouldn't want anything to mess that up.
TV Guide Magazine: Word is that Season 4 is going to be the last...
Gomez: I'm not really sure. [Wizards] has been such an important part of my life — I'm going to be the worst at saying goodbye.
Wizards of Waverly Place airs Friday at 9:45/8:45c on Disney Channel. Gomez conjures up scoop on Season 4 in exclusive videos at disneychannel.com
