I, Robot is the futuristic story of Chicago Police Detective Del Spooner (Will Smith) who is called in to investigate the apparent suicide of U.S. Robotics founder Dr. Alfred Lanning (James Cromwell). In 2035, highly intelligent robots fill public service positions throughout the world assisting people and doing labor and all of them operate under the Three Laws of Robotics which are basic rules designed to keep humans safe.

Unconvinced of the motive, Detective Spooner’s investigation into Dr. Lanning’s death reveals a trail of secrets and agendas within the U.S. Robotics corporation which elicit suspicions of murder rather than suicide. Detective Spooner believes that a human-like robot named Sonny (Alan Tudyk) murdered Dr. Lanning. With the help of Susan Calvin (Bridget Moynahan), a robotics expert, Detective Spooner uncovers a larger threat to humanity, a conspiracy that may enslave the human race.
