That's because yor __new__() returns None. Try

$ cat new_demo.py
class Foo:
    def __new__(cls, *args, **kargs):
        print('new', cls, args, kargs)
        return super().__new__(cls)

class Bar(Foo):
    def __init__(self, a):
        print('init', a)

bar = Bar(42)
$ python3 new_demo.py 
new <class '__main__.Bar'> (42,) {}
init 42
$
