Is there any movie in which the actor naturally aged and portrayed the younger and older version of character ? Not a prequel sequel thing. One movie.

there was some movie I read about where the actor had a heart attack walking through a doorway while filming, and the second half of the scene was shot much later after his recovery so he looks like he ages 10 years and loses 20 lbs as he walked through the door in the movie. can’t remember what film

Technically, every actor ages over the course of a film and plays a younger and older version of their character 🤓
