The film portrayals of Christian Coulson, Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, Frank Dillane and Michael Berendt are nice and everything but how do you imagined our dear Tom M. Riddle, is it certain actor or other eeal life person who imagine as Tom Or perhaps a piece of (fan)art when you think about him?

I think Christian Coulson as Tom Riddle was perfection. That evil smirk was just spot on and swoon worthy  you know, I've been re-watching Dexter lately. and the dude who plays Rudy Cooper would have been an excellen Tom Riddle   |

Well, for me, he has to be an eye-stopper. Incredibly handsome, not your run-of-the-mill guy to watch. Dark hair, dark eyes (which basically means brown to me), tall, skinny but not skeletal thin, not overly muscular, and well-groomed. I can't imagine Riddle being sloppy in his appearance since he's so meticulous in everything else. I have several examples for Tom Riddle. Dylan McDermott (from The Practice); even though he doesn't have brown eyes, to me he's pretty enough to fit the bill of an older Tom Riddle:   Ian Somerhaulder: I hadn't considered him until MsVelvela made a banner for my story the prisoner and I really liked the vibe he gives of in that banner (very dark).  Ben Barnes (as he was in Dorian Gray):   Well, I'm sure there are more options, but these three I just get of the top of my head. |

I think Dylan McDermott and Ian Somerhaulder make make very convincing Tom's at different ages. I like especially like the latter , I would never thought about Somerhaulder even if I love how portrayed Damon Salvatore in  Diaries. As for Ben Barnes (maybe unfortunatly) will always be Narnia's Caspian. |

Ah yes, I had the luck that I haven't seen him as Prince Caspian, but I can imagine that would not fit Riddle, to put it mildly. I only saw him in Dorian Gray and well, there he's very riddlesque. Just look at this vid: youtu.be/Z-MVj3u4HyM |

I kinda feel silly for not mentioning how I imagine Riddle too look. I always imagine him was drawn by the super talented Flayu. His/her drawings of Tom and Voldemort. As for real life actors well Luke Evans, especially as shown bellow  |

This is a serious question so let me show you my choice:    His name's Jonathan Rhys Meyers and ever since I first saw him in the Tudors and in Six Souls he was my head canon Tom Riddle from start on. |

That is a difficult question - When I am reading or writing, I think for most fics, I am seeing Christian Coulson in my mind, because for me, he was a Great Young Tom Riddle...HOWEVER...If I am writing (or reading) a fic where Tom is older, but not snake-face Voldemort, I am totally seeing him as a younger Ralph Fiennes...it actually make the transformation into Voldemort much more seemless in my imagination.
As for other actors that are totally unrelated who I could see making a good Tom Riddle, I cast another vote for Johnathan Rhys Myers, and even that guy that Plays Ramsay Bolton on Game of Thrones...he's certainly evil enough!
Here is how I imagine Tom at the age where he is working at Borgin and Burkes:
and of course, in the alternate scenario that he never becomes Voldemort, but instead becomes Professor Riddle, DADA teacher:

Well, the taste of a man is not the most beautiful actor of course. Although women like it.
