Not sure about Cronenberg - this would be very,very different than anything he has done. I think Malick would be good in theory, although New World was unbearably bad, so he may have lost it. Even Tommy Lee Jones might work - I though The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada was very good and seemed to be somewhat inspired by Blood Meridian.

Malick would probably turn it into an idealized wild west American/Native American love story [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. If only there was another Kubrick out there (I.E., a Dark Malick), Blood Meridian could be safe.
