A rumor from HitFix circulating the net that the Spider-Man film universe may have a crossover with Marvel's Cinematic Universe, it is a work in progress, according to the report,

"While I can't get the confirmations I need to verify the story, I'm hearing that there are some very cool "Spider-Man" plans being discussed that would help Sony refocus their enormously important franchise while also opening up some connections in the onscreen Marvel movie universe that would blow fandom's minds... What seems clear from what I've heard is that Marvel wants to be able to play with all of their characters, and if they can make that work creatively and on a corporate level, they will, and that means the world gets bigger again."

On the other hand, Marvel would like to be capable to play with all of its smart toys, and Sony is seeking for some help in getting their franchise of Spider Man back on track:

"Sony, on the other hand, may be doing things the opposite way. While I can't get the confirmations I need to verify the story, I'm hearing that there are some very cool "Spider-Man" plans being discussed that would help Sony refocus their enormously important franchise while also opening up some connections in the onscreen Marvel movie universe that would blow fandom's minds. Will it work out? I don't know. I would love to be able to state for sure that it's happening. What seems clear from what I've heard is that Marvel wants to be able to play with all of their characters, and if they can make that work creatively and on a corporate level, they will, and that means the world gets bigger again."

The producers of the Spider Man franchise have said, for the record that this form of connecting universe would only occur if they will lack of ideas, but we never know, things change. Still, the bottom line is, everything is possible, on the other hand, the news is still not confirmed, as the report states, this is still a rumor until Marvel releases a statement regarding this matter.
