The Tomorrow War

In December 2022, biology teacher and former Green Beret Dan Forester fails to land a job at the United States Army Research Laboratory. While he watches the 2022 FIFA World Cup final, soldiers from the year 2051 arrive through a time portal to warn that humanity is on the brink of extinction due to alien invaders: the Whitespikes. In response, the world's military forces are sent to the future, but less than 20% manage to survive, prompting a global draft. Dan receives notice of draft for a seven day tour, and is fitted with an electronic vambrace that tracks him. Dan's wife Emmy asks him to remove the vambrace with the help of his estranged father, James Forester, but Dan becomes angry with him for abandoning him in his childhood and leaves without removing the vambrace. Dan and the draftees are sent to Miami Beach, Florida, in the future, but few survive, having been dropped at the wrong coordinates, high above the city.
