Gigger Boys member Arron Villaflor gets his biggest break in the
movies as he plays the title role in the film "Astro Mayabang".

It wasn't that easy for Arron to get the role because he auditioned for it beating other hopefuls.

"Astro Mayabang" is a Kapampangan feature film and one of the 7
official entries in the CinemaOne Originals Independent Film Festival 2010.

The film pairs up Arron to Megan Young and reportedly the two have steamy scenes in the movie.

Meet the main cast:

Arron as Astro and Megan as Dawn


John Lapus as Mama Suk


Marco Morales as Iggy

The guy with Hermes in the photo is Kapampangan model Ryan Irdica, who's a member of the Kapampangan sing-and-dance group "Riversyd". The group, who's also part of the film, sings the theme song of the movie
entitled "Para Toot".
