The official Transformers Facebook page has posted a new character profile for Viviane Wembly in Transformers: The Last Knight. It looks like the Transformers Reaction Force was snooping around her desk and scanned her University of Oxford ID.
Viviane Wembly
Professor of English Literature
English Faculty
The Facebook video can be viewed after the jump.

Oh, yes! Alternatively, the names used were also Vivien, Viviane and Nimueh. Moreover, her character in some of the tales playes the role of the traitorous apprentice to Merlin. So it may be an intentional name drop

Vivian is also one of the names of the Arthurian character ("Lady of the Lake")

I think that they officially introduced Sqweeks as Sqweeks (they even added a "good luck with auto-correct" in the comment).
Is this the first official outing for Viviane? In story description she's introduced as an Oxford Professor. I don't remember them dropping any official info on her character besides this ID card. Perhaps the random misspelling in all the interviews comes from the similarity of Viviane and Vivian when spoken?

When I saw the name Wembly I thought of this.

Guys relax over the photo, it's not a passport or drivers license! It's only a college iD….it's proof of nothing other than it opens certain doors, in the UK these things are never strictly regulated, as long as you can tell it's the same person that's all that's needed. Strike a pose, stand back, wear makeup, colour your hair, wear glasses….there's no definitive formula. It's education not national security

"Hairbun McLoveinterest".

I know. Between that and the unorthodox spelling of her name, the movie is completely ruined.

Who poses with their shoulders like that for their work ID?
UPDATE: I will give them credit though. It is based on the actual Oxford ID card.
But I'm wondering if she would be listed as Professor.
She looks really young to be hold a Professor rank (which is for senior faculty). She should probably be a lecturer, reader, or associate professor. (If you put her at Laura Haddock's age, which is 31, then she probably has only had her Ph.D. for about three years. Maybe she was a child genius and wrote a really, really, really provocative doctoral dissertation on Transformers as a teenager?).

Her profile forgot SHE\"S SMOKIN\' HOT

I don't even know, but I remember it had a strange spelling.

Wasn't her character's name just "Izabel?"
WillShockwave
I don't know why, but when I saw her badge I remembered Hot Rod in the clip saying "Little Lady no Ohh …. she's very complicated"

Well, that sure was an in depth character profile.

After the trailing focusing on Isabella, I thought this movie might be making progressive strides towards females … but that photo makes me think her entire character is \"strict librarian who learns to relax and let her hair down.\"
Buh.

And Isabela Moner's character is named Izabella with a Z.

Just think the people putting together this promotional stuff don't know what they are doing lol

So instead of Squeeks, it's Sqweeks.
Now it's Viviane Wembly instead of Vivian Wembley.
Strange.
