    The last surviving Munchkin from “The Wizard of Oz” was Jerry Maren, who played a member of the Lollipop Guild. He passed away in 2018 at the age of 98.

    The term “last munchkin” can be interpreted in a couple of ways regarding The Wizard of Oz:

    Literally the Last Surviving Actor: If you’re referring to the last surviving actor who played a munchkin in the movie, that title belonged to Jerry Maren. He passed away in 2018 at the age of 98. However, it’s important to note that several child actors were also cast as munchkins, and it’s difficult to say definitively which one was the very last surviving munchkin.

    Figurative Representation: If you’re looking for a more figurative interpretation, perhaps referring to a story about the last surviving munchkin in the magical Land of Oz, there isn’t an official sequel or spin-off to The Wizard of Oz that features this specific concept.

    The term “last munchkin” is a bit tricky when referring to The Wizard of Oz. Here’s why:

    Multiple Munchkin Actors: There were many actors portraying Munchkins in the 1939 film. Determining a single “last munchkin” is difficult.

    Actor Longevity: Several Munchkin actors lived for many years after the film’s release. Unfortunately, as of today, May 24, 2024, everyone involved in the filming is likely no longer alive due to the passage of time.

      Here are some facts about the Munchkins in The Wizard of Oz:

      Jerry Maren: Often referred to as the “last surviving adult Munchkin,” Jerry Maren passed away in 2018 at the age of 98. However, it’s important to note that other adult Munchkin actors might have lived even longer.

      Child Actors: There were also many child actors who portrayed Munchkins. Due to privacy concerns and the nature of child acting careers, it’s difficult to track down information about all of them.
