Interview with one of the assistant editors working on the film, Scott Ross.
Says he finishes work on the film in January,

Asked if Nolan is an interesting director to work with, Ross said, “Yeah, he’s super-smart, a genius, basically. We’re working on the film Oppenheimer right now. It’s coming out in July. His movies are always hits because people just sit and wait for them to come out. Then they have to come out and see it like twice to understand them. They have a huge cast. It’s got Cillian Murphy, who is playing Oppenheimer. Then it’s got Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, Rami Malek, Kenneth Branagh, Gary Oldman — everybody is in this movie.”

Ross described what his job entails when working on a Christopher Nolan film.

“He has a film crew and an added crew, which is the digital, computer stuff,” he said. “But he shoots film, they send it back to the one lab that is still open on Earth, which is in Burbank. It’s called FotoKem. They process the film, and they give it to us. The film crew puts it all together in order — like, this is scene 62, take 1, 2, 3, 4. They organize it all. We get a digital version that they make from the film. We put it in the computer, organize all that, send it to the editor and the editor cuts until [Nolan] is done shooting the movie. He comes in, and he has 10 or 12 weeks to do his director’s cut to show to the studio. Then we are there organizing everything and ordering visual effects, working on the sound, turning it over to the music people — the composer — yeah, a lot of stuff.

Ross then shared what he described as a “kind of a fun fact.”

“In Dark Knight, I have 14 lines,” he said. “Like I do AER when you loop lines that aren’t there, and I play every SWAT guy at the end of the movie. I got paid, so I’m SAG (Screen Actors Guild) eligible now. They were just going to keep my voice in, but I asked, ‘Can you pay me one day, and I’ll pay you back?’ You have to pay a penalty for not using a SAG actor, which is 500 bucks. They said, ‘Don’t worry, we’ll pay it for you anyway. I have two lines in Inception, nine in Dark Knight Rises, six in Interstellar — and I did all those for free because they did me that favor.

When I finish Oppenheimer in January, I’m going back to Missouri and my brother and I are going to finish three of the music videos. Then, we’re going to package it as an album and go from there and see what happens.”
1. This dude lives in Missouri?! I live in St. Louis!!

He voices some sound they make, not their lines. Nolan is famous for capturing dialogues during shooting, and not adding them after.

Yeah I know he doesn’t like doing ADR. But that’s interesting, so he would just do like grunts and stuff like that?
