Working in companies that have some Haram activities : studying and working as a screenwriter

السؤال

Dear Dr. Monzer, Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, I have been told that watching Hollywood films Haram, if they are, is having anything to do with the making of them, like, directing, promoting, producing, or writing them also Haram. I am studying to be a screenwriter, and am working on a script as part of my studies. Being a practicing Muslim, I have not, and will not write scenes of intimate nature, or even where men and women need to touch, or a story which is against Islam, I would like to write films that gently promote Islam to a wide audience. However if a production company buys my script, as the writer I lose control over any changes that they make to the script and they may make any changes they like with or without my consent. I also have no say in what the characters wear. My question is that should I give up this choice of career. But if Muslims do not get involved in the entertainment industry which is non-Islamic how are we to change it ? Jazakum Allahu Khairan for your constant help
