Python has so much inertia at this point that it seems unlikely to happen in the near future.
Probably not quite to the scale as C/C++ vs rust for systems programming, but a similar idea. Rust has all these great features but most people doing systems know C, all their code is already in C, and so the cost of switching is very high.
Not that a switch will never happen, it's just that no matter how good Julia is any transition is going to take a long time. (I do think Julia is a good language though)
