It could still play a slight role in it. It's possible to pull off combining a sense of realism and the occult in a film. A new Chinese TV series about the Three Kingdoms era does it pretty well (an obscure reference to many, I'm sure.. but it's all I could come up with).

I can't imagine how they'd explain Sub-Zero's ice abilities without ascribing it too some sort of supernatural power.
