Luca Changretta

Luca Changretta is the antagonist of the fourth season of the TV series Peaky Blinders. He was the son of Vicente Changretta, who was killed by the Shelby Gang. The action of the season takes place in 1926. Luca Changretta becomes the head of one of the New York mobs as his father's heir and immediately arrives with his accomplices in England, Birmingham, to take revenge on the Shelby family by declaring a vendetta. During the struggle, several of Changretta's surviving associates betray him and Changretta is beaten by Tommy Shelby and then his brother, Arthur Shelby, puts a shot in Changretta's head, finally killing the mob boss.

Present Tense: Luca Changretta is resurrected, mysteriously traveling from the world of the TV series to the real world. He becomes the head of the Mafia again, but now not just the New York Mafia; he now heads all the factions and clans of the Italian and American Mafias, and takes over the United States and Italy.

Luca Changretta was born in 1880. His father was Vicente Changretta and his mother was Audrey Changretta. He had a brother Angel Changretta. Ethnically, he is Italian but was born in America. Before becoming the head of the New York Mafia, until his father died, he was a soldier for the Spignetta family. Around 1919-1920, he traveled from New York to Birmingham to be chauffeur at a cousin's wedding and then returned to New York. In 1926, when his father and brother are murdered by the Shelby family, he receives information from his surviving mother and declares a vendetta against the Peaky Blinders Gang. He arrives in England with accomplices. He makes an agreement with the head of the Shelby family, Thomas, to keep the vendetta honest: not to kill the children and not to involve the police. During the battle, which presumably lasts at least a week or two, Luca's accomplices kill several Peaky Blinders gangsters, and Peaky Blinders kills several Changretta gangsters. Eventually Changretta and a dozen of his accomplices stand in the factory in front of a table, and Luca demands that Tommy sign papers transferring the Shelby Company to the Changretta family. However, Tommy reveals that he has made a deal with Al Capone to take over Changretta's business in New York, since all of Luca's blood relatives are dead, and also reveals that he has paid off Changretta's remaining associates. Changretta is saddened by the betrayal and wants to shoot Tommy, but Tommy beats him up, and then Arthur Shelby comes in and puts a bullet in Changretta's forehead. In 2025, Luca is reborn in our world and quickly unites all the clans and factions of the American and Italian Mafias, and forges an alliance with the Irish, Polish, Slovak, English, Bulgarian, Montenegrin, and Croatian Mafias. He becomes the head of the Italian and American Mafias, and seizes power in the United States and Italy.

He looks like the actor Adrien Brody. His height is 188 centimeters. His eyes are green, but very often appear brown, almost black. Black hair is slicked back. Outside, he wears striped dark blue pants and jacket, a white shirt and scarlet tie, men's shoes, a very dark blue coat down to his ankles, and a fedora. On casual days inside the building, he usually wears black pants, a white shirt and a black vest with a gold chain. He has a piercing stare.

Luca is a very big family man, as befits a mobster. When he lived in the series, he obeyed his mother in everything and loved his father. He values his men and cares for them and their safety, always informing their relatives of their passing and honoring them. He is a man of honor, for he always informs those to whom he declares a vendetta that he is going to kill them, and does not touch the children. He is an intelligent man, able to plan long-term actions or make quick decisions in urgent matters. He acts as if it is still the 1920s, as he completely retains the behavior, habits, and attitudes of a typical 1920s American with Italian features. Tradition, style and culture are important to him. He is a leader and does not tolerate bickering, but is willing to listen to constructive suggestions. He is confident in himself and his actions. He is also a very ardent Catholic and devoted to God. He does charity work from his heart and spends a huge amount of money on it. When speaking, he always looks into a person's eyes with confidence. Can apply irony and subtle black humor. When rejected, he may become enraged.
