Gunfire erupted near the set of Queen Latifah and Common's new movie even before the cameras were rolling. Real gun fire, that is.

"We doubt it's connected to the film," a source close to the movie exclusively told RadarOnline.com, "But it is a little freaky. Things might be delayed a bit."

The shooting happened while the crew prepped for a scene in New York City Sunday night for the movie Just Wright.

According to reports, the victim got out of his car and began arguing with two men. A gun was pulled and several shots were fired. The victim suffered three gun shot wounds and was taken to Saint Vincent's Hospital where he is listed in critical condition.
