You can pick up to five: childhood you; adolescent you; adult you; middle-aged you; and old you.

Arnold Schwarzengger as childhood me. Liz Taylor as teenage me. Me and adult me, and daniel radcliffe when he was 11 as old me.

Childhood: any cute kid who can act.
Adolescence: any cute star who can act.
Adult: any cute star who can act.
Middle-aged: Tom Welling.
Old: any gracefully aging star who can act.

As you can see, I do not pay too much attention to stars of any age.

Ernest Hemingway could play me at my current age, with him at the equivalent age.  I don't know if he would be a good fit at earlier corresponding ages, but I think he might.

What are you doing?
Are you taking any medications?
Don't do that.

I was under the impression the OP meant current actors for each of our stages in life; i.e, a current young actor to play us as our young self.

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false and by the rulers as useful

Well Ernest isn't even an actor, just a Nobel Prize winning writer.  His granddaughter Mariel Hemingway is an actress, but she doesn't wear a beard ;-)r

The  Suicide Squad could play the late teens/early twenties me. It would take all of them.

Ernest was better looking--and i think I've seen her with a mustache or two.

I don't really care who plays me, as long as it's directed by the Coens.  And if you need someone to play what I'll look like in about thirty years, get Adam West.

This movie would be about 15 min--if padded out with extensive commercials.

adolescent--Mickey Rooney
adult--Dustin Hoffman
mid-age--Kirk Douglas
old--Jimmy Stewart--as Harvey
