Narrative:
During climb; received an engine trim fault that would not reset and; therefore; lost autothrottles. #2 EPR gauge failed shortly thereafter (already had #2 nacelle engine anti-ice MEL) then #2 reverser unlocked light illuminated and throttle was placed at idle per ECAM. Returned to ZZZ using single engine procedures with #2 throttle in idle and declared emergency. Overweight landing of 277.7 was made (over by 9.8K).
