Bracket families

10 clusters across 10 contracts.

These contracts were grouped by title similarity. The headline aggregate combines all clusters; verify the cluster you actually need before quoting a number.

Heads-up — heterogeneous clusters

The top two clusters share only 12% of their title tokens — “Will John David Washington perform as the main protagonist in the next theatrical film in the Black Panther franchise produced or distributed by Marvel Studios and officially recognized by Marvel Studios or Disney as the next primary Black Panther motion picture following Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)” vs “Will Angela Bassett perform as any role as an actor in Black Panther 3”. The headline aggregate weights both, so the number on this page is meaningful only if the clusters resolve to the same question.

Analysis

This probability estimates whether John Boyega will be cast as the lead protagonist in Marvel Studios' next Black Panther theatrical film following 2022's Wakanda Forever. At 10%, the market indicates low confidence in this outcome compared to other potential casting choices. The main drivers of this probability are the absence of any official casting announcement as of mid-2026 and the relatively crowded field of competing candidates—Aaron Pierre, Damson Idris, and others currently show higher market probabilities. The primary uncertainty resolver will be Marvel Studios' official casting announcement for the next Black Panther film, which would definitively confirm or eliminate this possibility. Until such an announcement occurs, the market will likely continue reflecting the speculative preferences of bettors based on available information, prior casting patterns in MCU projects, and any public statements from Marvel executives or producers about the franchise's direction.

  • No official casting announcement has been made for the next Black Panther film as of May 2026, leaving the protagonist role entirely unconfirmed
  • John Boyega's probability of 10% ranks lower than competing candidates like Aaron Pierre (6¢) and Damson Idris (7¢) in current market pricing
  • Market activity shows minimal trading volume across all competing protagonist contracts, indicating limited conviction or recent information flow among traders
  • Marvel Studios has not released a timeline or production schedule for the next Black Panther theatrical film, creating extended uncertainty about when casting decisions will be finalized
  • Boyega's previous MCU involvement, career trajectory, and any public statements about interest in the role would materially influence his probability if disclosed

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
