Chalamet is too old to play The Kid (who was only 16-17 during the main events of the book).
!bookworms I don't know why but I kept picturing Josh Brolin as Glanton while reading.

I could deal with Chalamet if he went by just just plain Tim Chalamet or even Timothy but that Timothee shit with the straggy little accent mark makes me grind my teeth.

Glanton is obviously The Bad from the good, the bad, and the ugly.

He's not a very good actor and you need someone whose a good actor and also massive/imposing, so I'd go with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (on a serious note, Dave Bneurodivergenta would be a good pick)

Hire no celebrities for the movie because acting isnt difficult. Use this are style and rotoscope the entire movie.

I would prefer blood meridian be an anime, I know it sounds sacrilege but I don't trust western movie makers to not kitty out with it.

Man frick that, adapting Blood Meridian feels like sacrilege. Struggling through the Spanish bits and trying to make sense of the vague imagery is just part of the experience. You can't put that into movie form without losing the essence of the book.
So much of that book is up to your own interpretation that a movie is either going to completely ruin it or it will end to being a weird art house western that nobody will actually like.
