You could remember Marny Kennedy if you ever watched an Aussie children’s show in the mid 2000s.

In a series of successes, including Mortfied and The Saddle Club, the star, now aged 27, was front and centre.

She continued to nab parts in productions such as Bite Club and Between Two Worlds as she grew up. And now, she’s scored a Home and Away gig in her highest profile job yet.

Marny will play a character named Rachel Young, according to Back to the Bay, who appears to be swept up in an upcoming explosion plot that also includes Jasmine (Sam Frost), Marilyn (Emily Symons), Ryder (Lukas Radovich) and Dean (Patrick O’Connor) fan favourites.

Marny revealed to TV WEEK Close Up in 2018 that she “self sabotaged” after auditions in Hollywood just five years prior to the interview, failing to make the transition from child star to more adult roles.

In 2014, she decided to “hide” when she returned home to Australia-and booked a trip to India without telling anybody.
