What is the ruling on filming movies that rely on photographing humans, rather than drawing and animating them, and working in this field? And what is the ruling on portraying figures of the Islamic religion, such as prophets, messengers, companions, religious scholars, and righteous individuals?

"Visual depiction and acting are permissible according to the most authoritative opinion, provided that impermissible Sharia-related matters are avoided in them. It is forbidden to depict the Prophets and senior Companions, such as the Rightly Guided Caliphs and the Mothers of the Believers, as well as other noble Companions, according to the most authoritative opinion. Some scholars have analogously included the depiction of Muslim imams who are deserving of reverence."
