Willis, 57, was catapulted to movie star status in 1988 following the release of the popular action film, which spawned a series of sequels including the upcoming fifth instalment 'A Good Day to Die Hard'.

The actor was on hand to celebrate the movie's 25th anniversary on Thursday by unveiling a giant 35-foot tall mural on the side of a sound-stage at the 20th Century Fox Studios in Century City, California, said The Hollywood Reporter.

"This is really nice. I started on Stage 20 at Fox. I'm so honoured. Thank you so much," said Willis.

He was then handed a detonator and, as the Fox fanfare played, a row of fireworks ignited over the stage as the curtain dropped to reveal the iconic image of Willis' New York cop crawling through an air shaft in the 1988 film.

"Twenty-five years. I don't really notice the passage of time. At the time, I didn't know what it was. And the idea of sequels hadn't happened yet. I probably should have been paying more attention," Willis later said.
