Millie Bobby Brown opened up on Instagram about what propelled her to recently cancel a scheduled appearance.

The 13-year-old actress, who's been busy filming Season 2 of Netflix's Stranger Things, said she's in need of rest after a hectic work schedule. As a result, she pulled out of a planned Saturday appearance at Collective Con in Jacksonville, Florida.

"I just think I've worked too hard and I have to rest, as I've had a really long shoot and I'm still filming Stranger Things," she said in a video. "I'm sorry to everyone who was going and I promise you guys I'm gonna get back to you."

"I love you guys all, thank so much for your continued support," she said.

In 2016, Brown experienced a meteoric rise to fame following her starring role as Eleven on the Netflix sci-fi series, and just recently landed a film role in the upcoming Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

Stranger Things was renewed for Season 2 in August and is scheduled to return on Oct. 31.
