Morphology
The meaning is compositionally derived from 'entertainment' (activities that amuse or interest) + 'industry' (the business sector producing goods/services); together they straightforwardly denote the business sector that produces entertainment. This compound follows a common noun+noun pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Entertainment industry comes from two simple ideas: entertainment is about keeping or amusing people with shows, and industry means many people or companies working together. That's why the phrase paints a picture of lots of people making movies, TV, music and live shows, and it means 'the business that makes and sells entertainment'.
