Arturo Castro Rivas Cacho (March 21, 1918 – 1975) was a Mexican character actor who was often credited and nicknamed as "El Bigotón," due to his distinctive mustache.

Arturo Castro's film career spanned four decades and he is probably best remembered for appearing in eleven Viruta and Capulina feature films. He also appeared in the 1964 Cantinflas film El padrecito as Nepomuceno, a peasant who wishes to name his newborn son after himself, but Cantinflas disapproves and refuses to baptize the child.

Arturo Castro was Benito Castro's father, Gualberto Castro's uncle, telenovela actress Daniela Castro's great-uncle, and Lupe Rivas Cacho's nephew.
