If they decide to do another LOTR adaptation in 20 years Martin Freeman would still be perfect to play Bilbo

And whoever plays young Bilbo would be great in The Hobbit remake

I would like to see an entire new cast. IMO it would be confusing to see the same actors in a reboot especially if it gets made sooner than 20 years. New generations could get the impression that the reboot of lotr is actually the sequel to PJ's Hobbit movies. I'd like to keep the world of PJ's movies and the possible reboots completely separate.

Though I expect a new director would want to cast his own choice of actor.
Curiously, in the BBC radio adaptation of Lord of the Rings from the 1980s, Ian Holm played Frodo.

He’s ready now not later: he shouldn’t age a day!

From the moment Bilbo gets the ring, he shouldn’t age a day.
He was supposed to still look like a comparatively young gentlehobbit of an apparent age of fifty when he left the Shire, not the eleventy-one years he had actually lived.
So no, Martin would not suit the part in the twenty years. He would suit it today, but not then.
…all eyes looked upon the ring; for he held it now aloft, and the green jewels gleamed there that the Noldor had devised in Valinor. For this ring was like to twin serpents, whose eyes were emeralds, and their heads met beneath a crown of golden flowers, that the one upheld and the other devoured; that was the badge of Finarfin and his house.The Silmarillion, pp 150-151 while Felagund laughs beneath the treesin Valinor and comes no more
to this grey world of tears and war.The Lays of Beleriand, p 311
