It was planned to compete with the Boeing 777X. So far no confirmed orders and as it stands its still an idea.

I think the -8000 is going to be the biggest one, to compete with the 777X, but it’s just rumors so far.

Airbus does have the A350-900LR brewing, I can imagine that those upgrades can be migrated over to the -1000.
