The political biopic “The Prince of Providence” may gain Robin Williams to join Dermot Mulroney, Adam Goldberg, Bradley Cooper, Ed Burns and Oliver Platt. Williams might play charismatic and corrupt Providence, R.I., Mayor Vincent “Buddy” Cianci. Scheduling is the big button on whether Williams will participate.  

David Mamet adapted the script by Michael Stanton’s book concerning the man who dominated Providence’s political machine for 21 years. The drama chronicles a roller-coaster series of ups and downs for one of America’s longest-serving mayors. Howard Korder helped polish the script.
