This is pretty much the barrier to any use of Drizz't in a movie. Like, you can go around in circles, and pretty much every result ends up being problematic. Cast the drow as POC, and you have the dark-skinned elves as the evil ones. Go with make-up and you end up with blackface. Sure, drow depictions tend towards the grey/purple coloration these days, but not always.
And if filmmakers were able to thread the needle, then all this stuff is still out there, a Google search away.

I think there are a lot of issues with drow and cultural sensitivity. I'm not particularly politically correct but having someone run around in blackface is probably not the best way to sell a movie.
