Marnie Cooper is a minor character in Scream 4.
Biography[]
Marnie appears at the beginning of the movie watching Stab 7 alongside her friend Jenny Randall. She discusses the idiocy of Stab 7's opening sequence being Stab 6, which refers to the opening of Scream 4 being that of Stab 6 and Stab 7. Jenny claims to hear a noise upstairs and goes up to investigate, leaving Marnie alone downstairs. Marnie thinks Jenny is just trying to play a prank on her.
At that moment, Ghostface calls her and asks her the infamous line, "What's your favorite scary movie?" However, it is revealed that it is only Jenny on the other end, using the Ghostface App on her cell phone to trick Marnie. Jenny hears Marnie cry out and runs downstairs to find her. She assumes that Marnie is trying to trick her and walks around the home looking for her.
The real Ghostface calls her, telling her she's in his new movie now. The same movie Marnie was in, but her part had gotten cut way back. When Jenny asks how, he insults her before warning her that she'd "better start running." Then Marnie's dead body is thrown through the window and Jenny runs. She is chased and finally killed in the garage.
Marnie is mentioned by Robbie Mercer after Olivia Morris dies, saying "Olivia is dead. So are Jenny Randall and Marnie Cooper." In the climax of the movie, Charlie Walker shows Sidney Prescott a video clip of Marnie being stabbed in the stomach by Ghostface.
