Production Posse is for when you see a group of people work consistently together on multiple projects, under the idea that they like working together and do good work together. If two people do just two things together it's just a coincidence.
I once asked a similar question
about Those Two Actors and got no response.
I figure Rule of Three is a good rule of thumb for both.

Bumping.
Helen Mirren asked Tom Hooper (who directed her on Prime Suspect) to do Elizabeth I (2005). For a recent example, Sam Levinson and Zendaya (Euphoria) decided to work together again to make Malcolm & Marie. In cases like this it's not a coincidence but rather an intentional re-team-up. Does that count as Production Posse?

No, not really. They need to work together often enough that seeing one creates the expectation that you will see the other(s).
Do I abuse the term when I apply it to people who only worked together twice? (EG, on the Trivia page for Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, I wrote that each actor from the '57 and '65 versions who appeared and/or sung in another R&H musical belonged in Rodgers' posse.) It doesn't help that if both entertainers are still alive, I consider the chance that they'll work together again in the future.
