That is the plot of the Will Smith version of I, Robot.

If I remember correctly, it's actually Daneel who comes up with the zeroth law. And it's not to justify killing people.

Why would anyone put will smith in this movie, or call it I, Robot, much less I have to assume they combined robots and empire with caves of steel and that’s a shit decision as well‽

They actually took a bunch of elements of the short story collection and jammed them together. The worst is what they did to Susan Calvin...

Ignoring the butchery, it's a pretty generic action movie. Very forgettable. Adding what they did to the source material makes it a straight tragedy.
