Maybe, but to the brain engaged in the activity, watching movies or playing video games is much better than a hobby. Real life is only exciting about 1% of the time for anybody. Curated entertainment cuts out most of the boring stuff. Consider this: physiologically, the person watching the biography is probably living a more exciting life than the person who it’s about.
