Looks like Sideshow Bob has finally given up on Bart Simpson, and is instead moving on to robots. According to Deadline, Kelsey Grammer has nabbed a role as the lead villain - the human one, that is - in the upcoming fourth Transformers sequel, which is fairly wittily titled Trans4mers.

Not too many details are available yet, but here's what we do know: Grammer will be playing be a guy named Harold Attinger, and he'll be a "counter intelligence guy" of some sort. It's not too clear on what exactly this means for the Transformers or for Mark Wahlberg's lead character, but it's nice to know Sideshow Bob is moving up in the world. Really, good for him.
