Johnny and an Error in Diction: "kind of a man"

Johnny Depp denied the rumors that he will play the late INXS front man Michael Hutchence in an upcoming film, explaining that he is the wrong kind of a man to portray the "glam" singer.

This sentence contains an error in diction. The phrase "kind of a man" should not contain the article "a" between the preposition ("of") and the object of the preposition ("man"). Remove the article to correct the sentence.
