Robin Williams will star in “Boulevard”, the next film from “Fighting” director Dito Montiel, says Deadline.

The funnyman will restrain himself for the dramatic flick, playing Nolan Mark, “a long married man forced to come face to face with his own secrets after meeting the emotionally closed young adult Leo, played by Roberto Aguire.”

The Douglas Soesbe written flick will shoot in Nashville in May.

Williams next appears in Lee Daniels’ “The Butler”, while Montiel has “Empire State” starring Dwayne Johnson and Liam Hemsworth.
