Sources say he is ‘doing incredibly well’ and was ‘back to his old self’.
The actor took time out of the public eye from April to December last year after suffering a mysterious medical complication, but is said to have been ‘really on it’ while filming new episodes of the game show.
A source told PEOPLE: ‘He’s so busy getting back to doing what he loves.
‘Jamie didn’t skip a beat on ‘Beat Shazam’.
‘He was literally right back to his old self. Really on it!’
Jamie has yet to reveal exactly what happened, but in December he made his first official public outing since April 2023.
At the time, the ‘Django Unchained’ star admitted he ‘couldn’t walk’ six months before as he battled a mystery illness and wouldn’t wish what he went through on his ‘worst enemy’.
He received a standing ovation from the crowd at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Century City, Los Angeles, when he walked across the stage to accept the Vanguard Award, but admitted it would not have been possible earlier this year.

He became emotional as he addressed the crowd, saying: ‘You know it’s crazy, I couldn’t do it six months ago – I couldn’t actually walk.
‘I appreciate every minute now – it’s different. I wouldn’t wish what I went through on my worst enemy because it’s hard when it’s almost over… when you see the tunnel. I saw the tunnel – I didn’t see the light.’
He then joked: ‘I’m not a clone, I’m not a clone. I know a lot of people who said I was cloned out there.’
