It's not a conspiracy and hardly secret. Archetypes in general necessarily find forms of expression in the collective unconscious (i.e. as character traits, struggles, mythos). The better artists know this fact and tend to create more compelling stories by giving these templates social relevance.
Although many conspiracy-oriented people tend to see popular TV and cinema as outlets for 'disclosure' leaks, for example, mythos is more fundamentally about 'self' (as social complex) attempting to recognize self. Similar to our individual minds, as a collective, we 'put out' unconscious questions which are 'answered' by art, war, or some kind of projection. It's undirected potential energy.
