Simple movies can be almost re-parented by deep-copying all the data and methods from one movie into another, but you'll run into problems if you try this with MovieClip subclasses that require constructor calls, and things rapidly get complicated as the clip you need to reparent gets more complicated. There is no magic bullet for this. (But there's always another way to accomplish whatever you're trying to do.)
