Heads-up — heterogeneous clusters

The top two clusters share only 13% of their title tokens — “Will Benedict” vs “Will Ryan Reynolds perform as Deadpool in Avengers: Doomsday”. 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 reflects whether Jonathan Majors will reprise his role as Kang in Avengers: Doomsday, scheduled for 2026. At 58%, it indicates meaningful uncertainty about his involvement despite his established place in the MCU's multiverse storyline. The market probability is driven by two competing considerations: Majors' criminal conviction in December 2023 and subsequent industry recalibration, balanced against Marvel's substantial creative and financial investment in his character arc across multiple projects. The primary catalyst that would resolve this uncertainty is an official MCU casting announcement, typically coming through major industry trades or Marvel's own announcements as production finalizes its roster. Contract volume data shows traders are actively pricing related casting decisions, suggesting the market views Majors' participation as genuinely uncertain rather than settled.

  • Majors was convicted of assault in December 2023, creating significant industry uncertainty about his future employment prospects
  • Marvel Studios had positioned Kang as the central antagonist for the Multiverse Saga before the conviction, representing substantial creative investment
  • Alternative casting or narrative solutions (recasting, character replacement) would require script and production adjustments
  • Official Marvel casting announcements typically occur 6-12 months before production or during press cycles, providing potential near-term resolution
  • Comparison contracts show traders assign 59% probability to Tom Holland as Spider-Man but only 36% to Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan, indicating variable confidence across MCU casting decisions

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.
