Now, it’s rain that has caused trouble.

The dreary weather has pushed back the shooting of “Men in Black IIIat Robert Moses State Park.

The movie starring Smith and Tommy Lee Jones was supposed to be filmed there starting on May 11.

Cameras may be out filming today. Some of the vehicles being used in the shoot are already out there, including vans painted to look like news trucks.

While filming in SoHo, Smith was forced to replace his massive $2 million luxury trailers (one of which was just his gym) because neighbors complained.

The film is set to hit theaters in the summer of 2012.

    Long Island will treat them a lot better than NYC.

    would you be “discreet” if you made that much millions? Truth is, people are 1..Jealous 2..discriminating (cause Tom Cruise won’t be treated the same way) and 3..Even as a fan you can NEVER understand what an actor has to go through just to create a good movie.
