CENTURY CITY, Calif., Feb. 20 (UPI) -- The box office hit "Juno" will be the first Fox Home Entertainment DVD to be sold at Starbucks coffee outlets in the United States, the studio said Wednesday.

The DVD will be released April 15. In the latest box office rankings offered by Box Office Mojo, "Juno" was No. 7 after 11 weeks.

Starbucks will offer the Oscar-nominated film that follows a wise-beyond-her-years teen, who, after an unexpected pregnancy, tries to find the perfect parents for her baby. The film is directed by Jason Reitman, who directed "Thank You For Smoking."

In addition, the studio said it partnered with Screenvision on an in-theater entertainment program focused on Women In Film -- in front of and behind the camera -- that will feature Ellen Page, who portrays the title character, and Diablo Cody, who wrote the screenplay.
