10 Movie Props You Won't Believe Were Re-Used In Other Films

10. True Lies' Airplane - The Avengers

James Cameron's 1994 action-comedy classic True Lies memorably concludes with Arnie saving the day in a U.S. Marine AV-8B II Harrier jet, which he uses to rescue his daughter (Eliza Dushku) and literally fire the terrorist antagonist (Art Malik) to his doom.

The jet prop reportedly sat in a desert garage for almost 20 years before re-appearing in 2012's The Avengers, briefly visible in the Helicarrier when The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) is battling Thor (Chris Hemsworth).

Thor ends up knocking the Big Green Guy into it with Mjolnir, prompting him to rip one of the wings off and hurl it at the Asgardian.

Joss Whedon confirmed on The Avengers' Blu-ray release that the prop was the very same, albeit given a makeover by his production team and slapped with the S.H.I.E.L.D. insignia.

And the story doesn't end there - a group of collectors then bought the smashed-up remains of the Harrier and spent two years restoring it. Now it's a tourist attraction, with one side restored to its True Lies glory, and the other The Avengers.
