The objective of this study is to find out whether and to what extent Hollywood movies propagate Islamophobia through bigger screens. Movies greatly influence the way people feel and think about many different things. It has long been vital to examine film depictions of various religions. The portrayal of Islam in media before and following the events of September 11, 2001, is analyzed in this qualitative study. Using purposive sampling, each film is selected both before and after 9/11. The Mighty Heart (2007) and True Lies (1994) both set before 9/11. According to the results, Hollywood movies frequently depict Muslims in a stereotypical light and use Orientalist stereotypes about Islam. To examine the content and show instances of terrorism, extremism, espionage, intrigue, and gender oppression, researchers created three scenarios. It turns out that Muslim women had lower status than men and could not get their hands on necessities. Terrorism, extremism, espionage, and intrigue are also major plot points in these movies. future studies can examine the steps implemented by the Hollywood business in response to Islamophobia in its films.
