When the film Tron was made (1982) Jeff Bridges was only 33 !

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

In 2010, "Tron: Legacy" hit the theaters and it is a sequel to the 1982 film "Tron". Maybe Tron:Legacy is the film you are referring to when you asked about how Jeff Bridges appeared a lot younger in the movie. Jeff reprised his role as Kevin Flynn and CLU and making him look years younger was something we have to credit to technology and visual effects.

Making Clu was very detailed; filmmakers had to make a silicon mold of Bridges' face and painted it with real flesh. Next, they took multiple photos of the actor, put them into a computer and gave him a "digital face lift" that allowed them to take out wrinkles, tighten the skin and shrink down his ears and nose. Bridges then performed a series of facial movements like raising an eyebrow and lifting a cheek that were recorded by camera and computerized in 3-D. When he was acting in scenes as Clu, Bridges would wear a helmet with four tiny cameras pointed at his face. There were dozens of dots on his face that acted as reference points for

the computer.

I am not sure what programs they used exactly, but I am assuming a 3D artist modeled the face, then mapped Jeff Bridges' dialogue to it; possibly using motion capture technology. So to answer your question, he was artificially rendered on a computer, or rather, on a computer, in a computer, for a computer.

He did play both characters - they used digital special effects. That movie had such sweet special effects, especially in 3-d!
