The Business Insider has uncovered emails that the script for Sony's Spider-Man spin off "Sinister Six" was due for submission on December 8th; which if everything were on schedule, the script would have been submitted less than a week ago.
 
Also uncovered in the emails were lists of Sony's release schedule that states a film simply titled "Sinister" is still due out in 2016, and another movie just titled "Spider-Man" due out in 2017 - it is unclear what the 2017 Spider-Man movie is about.
 
Having a script doesn't mean the movie has been green lit.

Head of Sony Picture's Amy Pascal expresses her lack of confidence for the spin off claiming: "I'm not sure Sinister Six is the way to go without its own [Marvel] Universe". 

Still getting a script produced shows the state of desperation encroaching Sony to get a film out to keep the creative control over Spider-Man in-house.

What happens with Andrew Garfield which earlier reports stated Sony had the actor "fired" from his Spider-Man contract? Where will the Spider-Man franchise go from here?
