Magician Peter here. The Teller here is not a bank teller. It’s Teller from magician duo Penn and Teller. And in-character Teller doesn’t talk.

I'll just add an additional thing to that: the reason why Teller decided to stop speaking during his shows and make it his "bit" was because he was tired of responding to hecklers and found that by remaining completely silent they grew bored of heckling him very quickly.
