Max Matenko is making his Disney Channel debut in the upcoming new series Wizards Beyond Waverly Place!
The young actor will be starring in the Wizards of Waverly Place continuation as Justin Russo’s youngest son, Milo.
In the show, we see an adult Justin Russo (David Henrie), who has chosen to lead a normal, mortal life with his family, Giada, Roman and Milo. When Justin’s sister Alex (Selena Gomez) brings Billie (Janice LeAnn Brown) to his home seeking help, Justin realizes he must dust off his magical skills to mentor the wizard-in-training while also juggling his everyday responsibilities — and safeguarding the future of the Wizard World.
Max is no stranger to being in front of the camera, after previously having roles on General Hospital, This Is Us and Platonic.
Ahead of the Wizards premiere, we caught up with Max and got to know 10 Fun Facts about him.

Check out what he shared below!
- 1. I love baseball – both playing and watching it. I’ve been playing on Little League teams since I was 5 years old, and am now in Majors. I love to pitch, play 1st base, and am a switch hitter. I also love playing tennis and have played in tournaments since I was 9 years old.
- 2. I have dual citizenship – the USA and also Canada, because my mom is from Toronto. We are big fans of Toronto and of the Toronto Blue Jays, through all of their ups and downs.
- 3. My birthday is on New Years Eve!
- 4. I love eating McDonalds, and I think the milkshake should be renamed “the McShake”!
- 5. There is a ping pong table at the Wizards studio, and I love playing with various cast and crew members every chance I get!
- 6. I have a dog named Mookie. My grandfather suggested the name, because of Mookie Betts, the baseball player.
- 7. I love music, and my favorite band is Coldplay. Before I met her on Wizards, I saw Selena sing with Coldplay at their concert at the Rose Bowl!
- 8. I love snow, and I love visiting Toronto in the winter.
- 9. I love listening to and giving advice to people. When I was 7 years old, I started a YouTube channel called “The Happy Center”, where I would try to help people with their problems.
- 10. One of the main reasons I was interested in being an actor was because of my older sister, Ruby, who is also an actor, and so funny and talented. When we were little, we used to act out every story our mother read to us.
