In that trailer, when Hawkins was speaking to a subordinate, and he called him;”...number one...”. it stirred my memory:
Where have I heard that voice saying a VERY similar thing? (calling someone a number)
Then it came to me -
Ben Hur!

In the first Star Trek pilot “The Cage,” Majel Barrett was “Number One.” She was later Nurse Chapel in the series.

And don’t forget that Picard called his executive officer, Commander William Riker, “Number One,” it is an old Royal Navy expression/designation
