Hollywood makes original movies all the time. Viewers just don’t go see them. Hollywood follows the money. If viewers watched original movies more, Hollywood would make them more.

Because those original movies are ass. They lost a lot of trust with the public and every decision they make now erodes it even further. Also the business model behind theaters is completely hare-brained and a lot of people don't have that kind of disposable income anymore. It's as if Musk is in charge.
