It’s probably a pretty boring topic at this point. At least for a decade you hear about it constantly so it just doesn’t have that sort of exciting aspect to it. It’s like making a movie about inflation.
If you explore the dynamics of people migrating en masse and severe drought causing crop failures and small countries mismanaging famines you jump right into war which makes for exciting movies

That’s kinda the premise of interstellar, but people sort of ignore it and just focus on the space part. My cynical guess is that a movie such as you describe would have audiences mostly focus and care about the war aspect, while ignoring the setup and premise.
Famine and climate refugees lead to authoritarian governments. Or, just have it in the backdrop like a comedy about a heatwave in March where people are sweltering and it turns into a meetcute.
Or just the super fucked up first chapter of Ministry for the Future.

A disaster movie…made boring because it’s about the potential future that we are creating?

I was thinking if it started “tackling” the climate change. But sure
