Surely it's just that someone has an idea and then while they're asking around for actors and shit to get it created, other studios hear about it and think "shit, have we got any films about x ready to go yet?"

This reminds me of when someone famous dies for examples Sven Goranwhatshischops and the platform has a full leangth documentary ready to air.
Are producers of these shows sat in meeting going “so and sos going to kick it soon we best put a mash up of career highlights together and get that guy from Jonathan Creek to do the voice over”

Well yeah, that's exactly what "twin films" is as a phenomenon. Studios hear about other projects and think "shit, we could do that too, faster and make some money."

I think it's done purposefully to chase viewing figures and cash, like with twin films (Deep impact vs Armageddon / Bugs Life vs Antz / Capote vs Infamous).
