I'd say the youngest Millennials are still only 13; the Artist archetype is a way off from adulthood.
What about Millennials disqualifies them from the Hero archetype? I think they are matching it. They still have time for a political movement; they won't likely get a war to fight in like the GIs had but that is because nuclear weapons have ended mass-scale conflict like the CW/WW era experienced.
I think maybe this Crisis doesn't feel Crisis-y enough but there are signs:
Growing populism/authoritarianism
Culture has become bland/predictable
Extreme factionalism - basically we are in a civil war, just not a shooting war
And the demographic bust, if not economic bust
