It is indeed now, but previously it was the intention for that of the A350-1000 (along with the 789 and A380s). Realistically though, as much as these individual aircraft types are spoken as B747 replacements, they all play their part and not one single type is actually replacing it as such - more so giving BA a greater operational flexibility.
