Actor and Tarlac 2nd District board member Arron Villaflor sparked speculation online after sharing a photo of his meeting with NAPOLCOM Vice Chairperson and Executive Officer Rafael Calinisan on social media.
The Instagram post showed the two in what appeared to be a formal meeting, accompanied only by the caption: “TRUST the system. @ralph_calinisan.”
Villaflor did not provide further details about the purpose of the meeting, leaving netizens wondering whether the actor plans to take legal action related to the controversy surrounding an alleged viral video involving him.

The meeting comes amid ongoing online discussions about alleged explicit videos circulating on social media, in which Villaflor’s name has been mentioned.
The actor has previously denied being involved in any such scandal and described the situation as a possible smear campaign against him.
In a February 27 interview before the press conference of the action-drama film ‘Pater Noster’, Villaflor said: “OK ’yan, nakakatulong sa akin. Alam mo sa panahon ngayon, you can’t dictate what you want to a person. Ako, I really believe nobody else would help you but yourself.”
He also reiterated his belief that the issue may be politically motivated.
“Ay naku, napakadami po [ng smear campaign]. It’s part of the political industry, so depende sa iyo on how you’re gonna react.”
Villaflor added that the clips shown to him were taken from scenes in his previous projects.
“Sabi, ‘Arron, meron ka daw scandal.’ Sabi ko, pakita niyo sa akin. Lahat ng pinapakita nila came from VMX projects.”
Aside from Villaflor, other actors whose names have been dragged into similar rumors include Nikko Natividad, Ron Angeles, and Gil Cuerva. Some netizens have even dubbed them the “Big Four” due to the alleged videos circulating online.
Despite the controversy, Villaflor said he intends to continue acting while being more selective about the projects he accepts.
“No more sexy roles, galing na tayo diyan. I’ve been doing those things for almost two years, three years… Hindi na siya tulad nang dati. It’s not easy compared before. Right now, I have to choose my work.”
Villaflor is currently preparing for the release of his upcoming film ‘Pater Noster,’ which is scheduled to open in Philippine cinemas on March 25.
