Not a single movie but that happened with several actors in both Star Wars and Star Trek. Or in Harry Potter. Puberty was good to Neville's actor.

It has also happened in many TV series where you can see a kid grow up to adulthood.

It could have happened with the movie Coffee and Cigarettes which started filming in 1986 and was released in 2003. It consists of several short episodes. But as far as I recall none of the actors of the earlier episodes came back for one of the later episodes.

Puberty was good to Neville’s actor.

Dudley's actor, Harry Melling, also got a fair bit more attractive. Maybe not as much as Matthew Lewis (Neville), but I've seen him in a couple of other roles where the makeup department isn't actively sabotaging his appearance.
