It's called being able to see the historicity of theater.
Raised by Wolves, for example, tackles the era of Cleopatra picrel and how she tackled the rise of the mithras/elagabalus mystics that were not native to her Egypt.
The actor that played "Mother" also reappeared with her costar in Game of Thrones, in the specific colors of their drone roles, as an easter egg for how technology and magic is one and the same depending on the era.
Hugo Weaving, to pull yet another deliberate multi-franchise "typecast", played in Lotr, Matrix and Cloud Atlas as the "Ancestor-head" that you never know whether is in his Odin or Loki archetype, tempting and guiding his listeners.
