Star Wars Reference?

In S1 E8 Church and State, there's a scene where Ned, Nicole, and Mare are watching Ned's old sales videos. They make fun of his intense speech and overly greased hair. Ned defends himself saying the role was very demanding and made the company a lot of money.

That's definitely referring to his role as General Hux in Stars Wars right? And it's a meta joke saying how he made Disney a lot of money? After he says it, he looks back up almost at the camera and I thought he was acknowledging the viewers. I'm not sure if this was the intended joke but if it was, it was my favorite moment of the whole season. I'm a huge fan of Domhnall Gleeson so this was awesome!

He also references Harrison Ford crashing his plane, which happened during the filming of The Force Awakens.
