There's already Nim (https://nim-lang.org/), which is Python like syntax and statically typed, with easy parallelisations etc already. What's lacking is the adoption as it wasn't hyped up. There's rarely a need to create yet another language and wait till it becomes mature and fixed all the issues with the eco system etc. If at all what's required is a way of translating all the Python libs to Nim or some similar effort.

In my opinion, I'd rather see F# or Julia succeed.
